Theorem uniretop

Description: The underlying set of the standard topology on the reals is the reals. (Contributed by FL, 4-Jun-2007)

Ref Expression
Assertion uniretop ℝ = ∪ ( topGen ‘ ran (,) )

Proof

Step Hyp Ref Expression
1 unirnioo ⊢ ℝ = ∪ ran (,)
2 retopbas ⊢ ran (,) ∈ TopBases
3 unitg ⊢ ( ran (,) ∈ TopBases → ∪ ( topGen ‘ ran (,) ) = ∪ ran (,) )
4 2 3 ax-mp ⊢ ∪ ( topGen ‘ ran (,) ) = ∪ ran (,)
5 1 4 eqtr4i ⊢ ℝ = ∪ ( topGen ‘ ran (,) )
