The Baire Theory of Category

The Baire theory of category, which classifies sets into two distinct categories, is an important topic in the study of metric spaces. Many results in topology arise from category theory; in particular, the Baire categories are related to a topological property. Because the Baire Category Theorem involves nowhere dense sets in a complete metric space, this paper first develops the concepts of n...

On the Baire Category Theorem

Let T be a topological structure and let A be a subset of the carrier of T . Then IntA is a subset of T . Let T be a topological structure and let P be a subset of the carrier of T . Let us observe that P is closed if and only if: (Def. 1) −P is open. Let T be a non empty topological space and let F be a family of subsets of T . We say that F is dense if and only if: (Def. 2) For every subset X...

Baire Category for Monotone Sets

We study Baire category for downward-closed subsets of 2ω , showing that it behaves better in this context than for general subsets of 2ω . We show that, in the downward-closed context, the ideal of meager sets is prime and b-complete, while the complementary filter is g-complete. We also discuss other cardinal characteristics of this ideal and this filter, and we show that analogous results fo...

Baire category theorem and its consequences

In this notes we talk about the Baire category theorem and its consequences: the BanachSteinhaus theorem, the open mapping theorem and the closed graph theorem.
