Hausdorff property is hereditary


Theorem 1.
Proof.

Let X be a Hausdorff space , and let Y be a subspace of X. Let y1,y2Y where y1y2. Since X is Hausdorff, there are disjoint neighborhoodsMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath U1 of y1 and U2 of y2 X. Then U1Y is a neighborhood of y1 in Y and U2Y is a neighborhood of y2 in Y, and U1Y and U2Y are disjoint. Therefore, Y is Hausdorff. ∎
