16 <strong>Topology</strong> (<strong>2301631</strong>)<br />

Definition 1.55. Let X be a space and A ⊆ X. We say that A is dense (in<br />

X) if A = X. On the other hand, A is nowhere dense if X − A is dense in X.<br />

Example 1.56. In R, Q is dense while Z is nowhere dense.<br />

Definition 1.57. Subsets A and B <strong>of</strong> a space X are said to be separated if<br />

A ∩ B = A ∩ B = ∅.<br />

Example 1.58. In R, the intervals (0, 1) and [1, 2) are disjoint but not separated,<br />

while (0, 1) and (1, 2) are separated.
