I'm trying to prove the following.



"Let $Omega subseteq BbbC$ be a domain. and let $epsilon>0$. For any two points $u,zinOmega$, prove that there exists a sequence of points $w_i^N_i=1subseteqOmega$ satisfying $w_1=u$, $w_N=z$, and $|w_i -w_i+1|<epsilon$ for all $i=1,...,N-1$."



It is obvious to show that domain is path-connected by setting two disjoint open subsets and concatenate the path within the points to show that one of the open subsets is, in fact, the whole domain. However, I'm not fully understanding how to go by solving the actual proof where we are showing the two consecutive points have distance less than some $epsilon >0$

    Hint: the path is compact in $mathbb C$.

    Use that the domain is connected. You problem is a special case of the topological chain theorem for clnnecged spaces.

A typical argument to show that all elements of a connected set $Omega$ satisfy
a certain property $P$ is to show that both the subset of all points
satisfying $P$ and its complement are open in $Omega$. This works here
as well:



For fixed $u in Omega$ and $epsilon > 0$ define two sets
$$
A = w_i -w_i+1
$$
and its complement $B = Omega setminus A$.



Then show that both $A$ and $B$ are open sets: If
$z in A$ (resp. $B$) and $U_delta(z) subset Omega$ for some
$0 < delta le epsilon$, then $U_delta(z) subset A$ (resp. $B$).
($U_delta(z)$ denotes the open disc with center $z$ and radius
$delta$.)



Since $Omega$ is connected, one of them must be empty, and consequently,
$Omega = A$.

    @YaG: Your $Omega_1, Omega_2$ are the $A, B$ from my answer. But there are no paths involved. If $z in A$ then there is a chain $u = w_1,w_2, ldots w_N-1, w_N = z$ connecting $u$ with $z$. If $D_delta(z) subset Omega$ then for each $z' in D_delta(z)$, $u = w_1,w_2, ldots w_N-1, w_N = z, w_N+1 = z'$ is a chain connecting $u$ with $z'$. Hence $D_delta(z) subset A$. Similarly for $B$. – Then the connectedness is used as you (and I) said.

Since $Omega$ is open, there exists $D_epsilon(w_i)subseteqOmega$ for some $epsilon>0$. It is obvious that if $w_i+1in D_epsilon(w_i)$, then $|w_i-w_i+1|<epsilon$. Then, consider the mapping defined by $pi(t)=begincases pi(2t) & 0leq t<frac12\ pi(2t-1) & frac12<tleq1 endcases$. Then, $pi$ is continuous, piecewise smooth curve that connects $w_i$ to $w_i+1$. It follows that $D_epsilon(w_i)subseteqOmega_1$ and that $Omega_1$ is open.

Now suppose $w_i+1inOmega_2$. Since $Omega$ is open, there exists $D_epsilon(w_i+1)subseteqOmega$. Let $Omega_i+2inOmega_2$. If there exists a curve that connected $w_i+1$ to $w_i+2$, then by taking similar approach as above, find a curve connecting $w_i$ to $w_i+2$ by concatenating the path from $w_i$ to $w_i+1$ and the path from $w_i+1$ to $w_i+2$. Thus, $w_i+2inOmega$, which is a contradiction to our initial assumption.

@YaG: Your $Omega_1, Omega_2$ are the $A, B$ from my answer. But there are no paths involved. If $z in A$ then there is a chain $u = w_1,w_2, ldots w_N-1, w_N = z$ connecting $u$ with $z$. If $D_delta(z) subset Omega$ then for each $z' in D_delta(z)$, $u = w_1,w_2, ldots w_N-1, w_N = z, w_N+1 = z'$ is a chain connecting $u$ with $z'$. Hence $D_delta(z) subset A$. Similarly for $B$. – Then the connectedness is used as you (and I) said.

@YaG: Yes, that's what I meant. One thing only: $epsilon > 0$ is given, so you cannot say that $D_epsilon(z)subseteqOmega$, only that $D_delta(z)subseteqOmega$ for some $0 < delta le epsilon$.
