Exercise 18, § 10

General Topology, I, 153

It is set in small type as supplementary.

Let X be the locally compact subspace [0,+∞[[0, +\infty[ of R. Let S be the equivalence relation on X whose equivalence classes are the sets {x,1/x}\{x, 1/x\} for 0<x≤10 < x \leq 1 and the set {0}\{0\}. Show that S is open, that the graph of S is closed in X×XX \times X and that X/SX/S is compact, but that S is not closed.*
