Basic properties the notions of <strong>category</strong><br />

(a) If A ⊆ B and B is of the first <strong>category</strong>, then so is A.<br />

Indeed if B = ∞<br />

i=1 Bi, then A = ∞<br />

i=1 Bi ∩ A and Bi ∩ A ⊆ Bi.<br />

(b) Any countable union of sets of the first <strong>category</strong> is of the first<br />

<strong>category</strong>.<br />

Indeed, if B = ∞ i=1 Bi and Bi = ∞ j=1 B(i,j), for all i, then<br />

B(i,j), i,j ∈ N is a countable collection of sets whose union is B.<br />

(c) Any closed set with empty interior is of the first <strong>category</strong>.<br />
