Definition: Discrete and Indiscrete Topology
It is easily verified from the axioms of a topology that every set $X$ together has two particular topologies:
- its power set $\mathcal P(X)$ (containing all possible subsets of $X$), called the discrete topology of $X,$ and
- the set $\{X,\emptyset\},$ (containing the greatest and the smallest subset of $X$), called the indiscrete topology of $X.$
