Are 0,8 and 9 homeomorphic topological space?












2















Consider the topological spaces "0","8" and "9" in $mathbb{R}^{2}$. Are they homeomorphic?




I have an approach that doesnt look very rigorous to me. I wanted to know how to formalize this if its correct.




  • 0 and 8 are not homeomorphic since excluding one point of 0 the space is still connected, but excluding the "tangent point" of 8, we have a disconnected space.


  • Same idea for 8 and 9.


  • The space 9 is union of one circle and one arc. The arc is homeomorphic to the circle, so we can view 9 as a union of two circles, then 8 and 9 are homeomorphic



PS: the topology of the spaces is induced by topology of $mathbb{R}^{2}$.

    "The arc is homeomorphic to the circle." No, it isn't. An arc is disconnected by removing a point; a circle isn't.

0 has no cut points.

8 has exactly one cut point.

9 has infinitely many cutpoints.

To show there are no homeomorphisms

among 0,8,9 use the exercise.



Exercise. Prove if f:X -> Y is homeomorphism and

p cutpoint of X, then f(p) is cutpoint of Y.



Also show an arc is not homeomorphic to a circle.
