Theorem
Let $T = \struct{S, \tau}$ be a topological space.
Let $\map \Omega T$ denote the frame of topological space $T$.
Then:
- $\map \Omega T$ is a frame
Proof
Recall that the frame of topological space $T$ is defined to be:
- $\map \Omega T = \struct{\tau, \subseteq}$
where $\subseteq$ denotes the subset relation.
From Topology forms Complete Lattice:
- $\map \Omega T$ is a complete lattice
Furthermore:
- $\forall \TT \subseteq \tau : \sup \TT = \bigcup \TT, \inf \TT = \paren{\bigcap \TT}^\circ$
where $\paren{\bigcap \TT}^\circ$ denotes the interior of $\bigcap \TT$
From Interior of Open Set and Open Set Axiom $\paren {\text O 2 }$: Pairwise Intersection of Open Sets:
- $\forall U, V \in \tau : \paren{U \cap V}^\circ = U \cap V$
Hence:
- $\forall U, V \in \tau : U \wedge V = U \cap V$
From Intersection Distributes over Union (General Result):
- $\map \Omega T$ satisfies the infinite join distributive law
Hence $\map \Omega T$ is a frame by definition.
