topology exercice 2

**Exercise 1. [Metric]** Let \( p \) be a prime number, and define \( d_p: \mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z} \rightarrow [0, +\infty] \) by

\[
d_p(x, y) = p^{-\max(m \in \mathbb{N}_0 : p^m \text{ divides } (x-y))}
\]

Prove that \( d_p \) is a metric on \( \mathbb{Z} \) and that \( d_p(x, y) \leq \max\{d_p(x, z), d_p(z, y)\} \) for every \( x, y, z \in \mathbb{Z} \).

**Exercise 2. [Closed in metric space]** Let \((X, d)\) be a metric space and \( F \subseteq X \) be a finite subset. Prove that \( F \) is closed in \( X \).

---

**Exercise 3. [Closure in metric space]** Let \((X, d)\) be a metric space and \( Y \) be a nonempty subset of \( X \). Define the distance of a point \( x \in X \) from the subset \( Y \) as a function \( X \to [0,+\infty] \) by

\[
d(x, Y) = \inf\{d(x, y); y \in Y\}.
\]

1. Verify that the distance function is well-defined.
2. Prove that \( \overline{Y} = \{x \in X; d(x, Y) = 0\} \).

---

**Exercise 4. [Separable space]** Let \( X \) be a set of all real sequences \((x_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}\) converging to 0. Prove that the function

\[
d : X \times X \rightarrow [0, +\infty]
\]

\[
(x_n, y_n) \rightarrow d((x_n, y_n) = \sup_{n \in \mathbb{N}} |x_n - y_n|
\]

is a metric on \( X \). Show that the metric space \( (X, d) \) is separable.
