In particular, let $X$ be Baire, then $U \overset{\text{open}}{\subseteq} X$ is Baire. \end{fact} \begin{enumerate}[(a)] \item Let $X$ be a non-empty Baire space and let $A \subseteq X$. Show that $A$ cannot be both meager and comeager. Suppose that $A \subseteq X$ is meager and comeager. Then $A = \bigcup_{n < \omega} U_n$ and $X \setminus A = \bigcup_{n < \omega} V_n$ for some nwd sets $U_n, V_n$. Then $X = A \cup (X \setminus A)$ is meager. Let $X = \bigcup_{n < \omega} W_n$ be a union of nwd sets. Wlog.~the $W_n$ are closed (otherwise replace them $\overline{W_n}$) Then $\emptyset = \bigcap_{n < \omega} (X \setminus W_n)$ is a countable intersection of open, dense sets, hence dense $\lightning$ \item Let $X$ be a topological space. The relation $=^\ast$ is transitive: Suppose $A =^\ast B$ and $B =^\ast C$. Then $A \symdif C \subseteq (A \symdif B \cup B \symdif C)$ is contained in a meager set. Since a subset of a nwd set is nwd, a subset of a meager set is meager. Hence $A \symdif C$ is meager, thus $A =^\ast C$. \item Let $X$ be a topological space. Let $A \subseteq X$ be a set with the Baire property, then at least one of the following hold: \begin{enumerate}[(i)] \item $A $ is meager, \item there exists $\emptyset = U \overset{\text{open}}{\subseteq} X$ such that $A \cap U$ is comeager in $U$. \end{enumerate} Suppose there was $A \subseteq X$ such that (i) does not hold. Then there exists $U \overset{\text{open}}{\subseteq} X$ such that $A =^\ast U$. In particular, $A \symdif U$ is meager, hence $U \cap (A \symdif U) = U \setminus A$ is meager. Thus $A \cap U$ is comeager in $U$. Now suppose that $X$ is a Baire space. Suppose that for $A$ (i) and (ii) hold. Let $\emptyset \neq U \overset{\text{open}}{\subseteq} X$ be such that $A \cap U$ is comeager in $U$. Since $U$ is a Baire space, this contradicts (a). \end{enumerate} \nr 2 Let $(U_i)_{i < \omega}$ be a countable base of $Y$. We want to find a $G_\delta$ set $A \subseteq X$ such that $f\defon{A}$ is continuous. It suffices make sure that $f^{-1}\defon{A}(U_i)$ is open for all $i < \omega$. Take some $i < \omega$. Then $V_i \setminus M_i \subseteq f^{-1}(U_i) \subseteq V_i \cup M_i$, where $V_i$ is open and $M_i$ is meager. Let $M'_i \supseteq M_i$ be a meager $F_\sigma$-set. Now let $A \coloneqq X \setminus \bigcup_{i <\omega} M_i'$. We have that $A$ is a countable intersection of open dense sets, hence it is dense and $G_\delta$. For any $i < \omega$, $V_i \cap A \subseteq f\defon{A}^{-1}(U_i) \subseteq (V_i \cup M_i) \cap A = V_i \cap A$, so $f\defon{A}^{-1}(U_i) = V_i \cap A$ is open. \nr 3 \todo{handwritten} \nr 4 \begin{lemma} There exists a non-meager subset $A \subseteq \R^2$ such that no three points of $A$ are collinear. \end{lemma} This requires the use of the axiom of choice. \begin{proof} Enumerate the continuum-many $F_\sigma$ subsets of $\R^2$ as $(F_i)_{i < \fc}$. We will inductively construct a sequence $(a_i)_{i < \fc}$ of points of $\R^2$ such that for each $i < \fc$: \begin{enumerate}[(i)] \item $\{a_j | j \le i\} $ is not a subset of $F_i$ and \item $\{a_j | j \le i\}$ does not contain any three collinear points. \end{enumerate} \begin{enumerate}[(a)] \item Let $B = \{x \in \R | (F_i)_x \text{ is meager}\}$. Then $B$ is comeager in $\R$ and $|B| = \fc$. We have $|B| = \fc$: $B$ contains a comeager $G_\delta$ set, say $B'$. $B'$ is Polish, hence $B' = P \cup C$ for $P$ perfect and $C$ countable, and $|P| \in \{\fc, 0\}$. But $B'$ can't contain an isolated point. \item We use $B$ to find a suitable point $a_i$: To ensure that (i) holds, it suffices to chose $a_i \not\in F_i$. Since $|B| = \fc$ and $|\{a_i | j < i\}| = |i| < \fc$, there exists some $x \in B \setminus \{\pi_1(a_j)| j
