20 | 20 | By (i), the complement $V_n$ of $\overline{E}_n$ is a dense open set. % |
21 | | -Since $X$ is an F-space, it follows from the Baire's theorem that % |
| 21 | +Now pick $x$ in $X$: $x + V_n$ is dense open as well, |
| 22 | +since the translation by $x$ is an homeomorphism of $X$. % |
22 | 23 | % |
23 | | - the intersection $S$ of the $V_n$'s is dense in $X$: % |
| 24 | +Note that the density is also a special case of \citeresultFA{1.3 (b)}, as follows, % |
24 | 25 | % |
25 | | -So is $x+S$ ($x\in X$). To see that, remark that % |
| 26 | +\begin{align}\label{2_15_2} |
| 27 | + X = x + X \subseteq \overline{x + V_n}. |
| 28 | +\end{align} |
26 | 29 | % |
27 | | - \begin{align}\label{2_15_2} |
28 | | - X = x + \overline{S} \subseteq \overline{x + S} |
29 | | - \end{align} |
| 30 | +We now apply the Baire's theorem twice to establish that % |
30 | 31 | % |
31 | | -follows from \citeresultFA{1.3 (b)}. % |
32 | | -Since $S$ and $x+S$ are both dense open subsets of $X$, % |
33 | | -the Baire's theorem asserts that % |
| 32 | +\begin{enumerate} |
| 33 | + \item every intersection $W_n = V_n \cap (x+V_n)$ is dense in $X$; |
| 34 | + \item so is the intersection $\displaystyle{\bigcap_{n=1}^\infty W_n}$. |
| 35 | +\end{enumerate} |
34 | 36 | % |
35 | | - \begin{align} |
36 | | - \overline{(x+S)\cap S} = X. |
37 | | - \end{align} |
| 37 | +Bear in mind that every dense subset of $X$ is nonempty and remark that % |
| 38 | +\begin{align}\label{2_15_3} |
| 39 | + \bigcap_{n=1}^\infty W_n \subseteq \bigcap_{n=1}^\infty V_n \subseteq Y |
| 40 | +\end{align} |
| 41 | +holds, since % |
38 | 42 | % |
39 | | -Thus, |
| 43 | + $X\setminus Y \subseteq \bigcup_{n=1}^\infty \overline{E}_n$. % |
40 | 44 | % |
41 | | - \begin{align}\label{2_15_4} |
42 | | - (x+S)\cap S\neq\emptyset. |
43 | | - \end{align} |
| 45 | +Now pick $w$ in $\bigcap_{n=1}^\infty W_n$, so that % |
| 46 | +$w$ is an element of $Y$ (by (\ref{2_15_3})) that lies in every $W_n$. % |
| 47 | +The key ingredient is that $W_n$ a subset of $x + V_n$. % |
| 48 | +Hence % |
44 | 49 | % |
45 | | -Moreover, it follows from (ii) that % |
| 50 | +\begin{align} |
| 51 | + w \in x + V_n. |
| 52 | +\end{align} |
46 | 53 | % |
47 | | - $X\setminus Y \subseteq \bigcup_n \closure{E}_n$, \ie |
48 | | - $Y \contains S$. % |
49 | | -Combined with (\ref{2_15_4}), this shows that $x+Y$ cuts $Y$. |
50 | | -Therefore, our arbitrary $x$ is an element of the subgroup $Y$. % |
51 | | -We have thus established that $X \subseteq Y$, which achieves the proof. |
| 54 | +Finally, |
| 55 | +\begin{align} |
| 56 | + w - x \in \bigcap_{n=1}^\infty V_n \subseteq Y; |
| 57 | +\end{align} |
| 58 | +% |
| 59 | +again with (\ref{2_15_3}). |
| 60 | +It is now clear that $x + Y$ cuts $Y$ in $x + (w - x ) = w$, which establishes that $x$ lies is $Y - Y$. % |
| 61 | +As a conclusion, |
| 62 | +\begin{align} |
| 63 | + X \subseteq Y, |
| 64 | +\end{align} |
| 65 | +% |
| 66 | +since $x$ was arbitrary and that $Y$ is a subgroup. % |
| 67 | +So ends the proof. |

| 70 | +% \begin{align}\label{2_15_4} |
| 71 | +% (x+S)\cap S\neq\emptyset. |

| 73 | +% |
| 74 | +%Moreover, it follows from (ii) that % |
| 75 | +% |
| 76 | +% $X\setminus Y \subseteq \bigcup_n \closure{E}_n$, \ie |
| 77 | +% $Y \contains S$. % |
