Definition: Neighborhood

Let $A$ be an element of a topological space $(X,\mathcal O)$ ($A$ might be a single point of a set of points). A neighborhood $N_A$ is any subset of $X$ containing an open set containing $A$, formally $$N_A\in \{U\subseteq X\mid \exists O\in\mathcal O, A\in O\subseteq U\}.$$

The set of all neighborhoods of $A$ is denoted by $\mathcal N(A).$
