Let $X$ be a topological space and $A,Bsubset X$ If $A cap B =emptyset $ then $A^- cap B^circ =emptyset$ ? We have that $A cap B^circ subset Acap B = emptyset$ and $A cap B^circ subset A^- cap B^circ $ ...? How can I finish it. Please

  • @5xum Probably the closure and the interior, respectively of $A$ and $B$.

The other way is to use the definition of closure and interior:



Suppose $A cap B = varnothing$. Could $A^- cap B^o$ be nonempty? Suppose $x in A^- cap B^o$. Then in particular $x in B^o$. Therefore, there is a neighborhood $U$ of $x$ with $U subseteq B$. But since $A cap B = varnothing$, we have $U cap A = varnothing$. So: $x$ has a neighborhood disjoint from $A$, which means $x notin A^-$. This contradicts $x in A^- cap B^o$.

    Use that $A^-$ is the smallest closed set that contains $A$; also $Xsetminus B^circ$ is some closed set that contains $A$. Hence $A^-subseteq Xsetminus B^circ$.
