Construct two topological spaces $X,Y$ satisfying that $X$ is not homeomorphic to $Y$, but $Xtimes[0,1]$ is homeomorphic to $Ytimes[0,1]$



i just solve the condition with $[0,1)$. Have no good idea of this construction.



Any idea is helpful. thanks

  • Yes, for $[0,1)$ as the second factor, $X=[0,1)$ and $Y=[0,1]$ work, as a well known example. There are metric examples for $[0,1]$ too, though I don’t remember them now.

  • @HennoBrandsma I hope I'm not missing something, but $[0,1)times [0,1]$ is not compact unlike $[0,1]times [0,1]$, so they're not homeomorphic.

  • @Scientifica That's right, but $[0,1] times [0,1)$ and $[0,1) times [0,1)$ are. The second factor $[0,1)$ case.

  • @Scientifica Ok, I was just referring to the OP mentioning he already did the $[0,1)$ case, which is classical.
