Topology, a Logic approach

Consider a Topology over F2, {∅,1,F2}

For all Topology Spaces (X,τ), for any open set U∈τ ,

the characteristic function χU(x):={1,x∈U0,x∉U is continuous function

What's more, every continuous function is of the form χU, f−1(1)=U,f=χU

Thus Top(X,F2) is a copy of τ

And recall the Boolean Ring and Boolean Algebra

U∩V↦χU⋅χV,U∪V↦χU+χV+χU⋅χV

or consider min(χU,χV)−1(1)=U∩V,max(χU,χV)−1(1)=U∪V

Consider some propositions p over X, p:X→F2:={1,p(x)is true0,p(x)is false

It can be viewed as some characteristic function.

If we consider a family P of propositions about X that can be proved to be true for S⊆X,

P should have those properties

False and True∈P.

Any ∨ of elements of P is an element of P.

The reason that we can consider any ∨ is we only need to prove one of them is true, then the ∨ is true

Any ∧ of finitely many elements of P is an element of P.

We can not consider infinitely many ∧ because we need to prove all the proposition is true,

but we can not prove infinitely many propositions are true in finite steps.

And consider the family of p−1(1)⊆X, It is a topology over X

{x∈X|p∨q(x)=1}={x∈X|p(x)=1}∪{x∈X|q(x)}

{x∈X|p∧q(x)=1}={x∈X|p(x)=1}∩{x∈X|q(x)}
