Baire spaces #

A topological space is called a Baire space if a countable intersection of dense open subsets is dense. Baire theorems say that all completely metrizable spaces and all locally compact regular spaces are Baire spaces. We prove the theorems in Mathlib/Topology/Baire/CompleteMetrizable and Mathlib/Topology/Baire/LocallyCompactRegular.

In this file we prove various corollaries of Baire theorems.

The good concept underlying the theorems is that of a Gδ set, i.e., a countable intersection of open sets. Then Baire theorem can also be formulated as the fact that a countable intersection of dense Gδ sets is a dense Gδ set. We deduce this version from Baire property. We also prove the important consequence that, if the space is covered by a countable union of closed sets, then the union of their interiors is dense.

We also prove that in Baire spaces, the residual sets are exactly those containing a dense Gδ set.
