S01 · implies
Before
\varnothing\subset\{0\}\subset\{0,1\}After
\tau_X,\tau_Y\text{ are topologies}Conditions: none
Rule: topology · Uses: G1
Leaf basis: topology
Each three-member chain contains endpoints and is union/intersection closed, qualifying both factors.
S02 · definition
Before
P=X\times Y
After
P=\{a,b,c,d\},\quad |P|=2\cdot2=4Conditions: none
Rule: definition_here · Uses: G1
Leaf basis: definition_here
The complete Cartesian carrier contains four ordered pairs.
S03 · definition
Before
U\times V,\quad U\in\tau_X,V\in\tau_Y
After
\mathcal B=\{\varnothing,\{a\},\{a,b\},\{a,c\},P\}Conditions: none
Rule: definition_here · Uses: G1, S01, S02
Leaf basis: definition_here
Deduplicate nine rectangles into five sets: an empty factor gives empty, and the four nonempty combinations are listed.
S04 · definition
Before
\tau_P=\{\bigcup\mathcal C:\mathcal C\subseteq\mathcal B\}After
\tau_P=\{\varnothing,\{a\},\{a,b\},\{a,c\},\{a,b,c\},P\}Conditions: none
Rule: definition_here · Uses: S03
Leaf basis: definition_here
The union of the two incomparable rectangles adds {a,b,c}; every other union is already listed, giving exactly six opens.
S05 · implies
Before
\{a,b\}\cap\{a,c\}=\{a\},\quad \{a,b\}\cup\{a,c\}=\{a,b,c\}After
\tau_P\text{ is a topology}Conditions: none
Rule: topology · Uses: S04
Leaf basis: topology
Except for the incomparable pair, inclusion determines unions/intersections; operations with the added three-point set also stay listed, and endpoints are present.
S06 · implies
Before
\pi_1^{-1}(\{0\})=\{a,b\},\quad\pi_2^{-1}(\{0\})=\{a,c\}After
\pi_1,\pi_2\text{ are continuous}Conditions: none
Rule: definition_here · Uses: G1, S04, definition_here
Leaf basis: definition_here
The remaining factor opens are empty and whole, with preimages empty and P; every required preimage is open.
S07 · implies
Before
h(z)=(f(z),g(z)),\quad f,g\text{ continuous}After
h^{-1}(U\times V)=f^{-1}(U)\cap g^{-1}(V)\text{ open}Conditions: f:Z\to X,\ g:Z\to Y\text{ continuous}
Rule: definition_here · Uses: S03, S04, definition_here
Leaf basis: definition_here
For a finite topological source Z, continuous coordinates give open preimage intersections; preimages commute with arbitrary rectangle unions.
S08 · implies
Before
h\text{ continuous}After
f=\pi_1\circ h,\quad g=\pi_2\circ h\text{ continuous}Conditions: h:Z\to P\text{ continuous}
Rule: definition_here · Uses: S06, S07, definition_here
Leaf basis: definition_here
Composition preserves continuity because preimages compose; together with the previous step this gives the coordinate criterion.
