let $X$ be an arbitrary Hausdroff space, then is $Xsetminus{x_0}$ always dense? [closed]

$begingroup$


I know $mathbb{R}setminus{x_0}$ is dense subset of $mathbb{R}$. Is this result true for any arbitrary Hausdroff Topological space.



I mean, let $X$ be an arbitrary Hausdroff space, then is $Xsetminus{x_0}$ always dense?

          No. The set $Xsetminus{x_0}$ is dense if and only if $x_0$ is not an isolated point. So, take $mathbb Z$ with the usual topology, for instance, and any $x_0inmathbb Z$.

            It is not true. For example, taking $X=[0,1]cup{2}$, we can see that $Xsetminus{2}$ is not dense.



            $Xsetminus {x_0}$ is dense if and only if its closure is $X$. This means that it is dense if and only if it is not closed.



            Remember, in a Hausdorff space, every singleton is closed, which means $Xsetminus{x_0}$ must be open. This, along with the statement above, means that $Xsetminus{x_0}$ is dense if and only if $x_0$ is not an isolated point.
