This article defines a property of topological spaces: a property that can be evaluated to true/false for any topological space|View a complete list of properties of topological spaces

Definition

A topological space is said to be a Volterra space if the intersection of any two dense Gδ-subsets in it is dense.

Relation with other properties

Stronger properties

There has been a lot of research on conditions under which Volterra = Baire.

Metaproperties

Hereditariness on open subsets

This property of topological spaces is hereditary on open subsets, or is open subspace-closed. In other words, any open subset of a topological space having this property, also has this property
