The 1989 book "Topology via Logic" by Steven Vickers might be a good fit. Or a horribly bad one.

A subset of the unit interval is a complete sublattice if and only if the complement is a disjoint union of open intervals.

A subset of the unit interval is a complete lattice if and only if the complement is a disjoint union of open and half-open intervals.

Even though the letter does not exist in traditional French, the sound does: "Ouest"

There is a 2009 ET note by Weibull and Vielle that includes a log-utility example in which the multiple self model allows weird SPE even with exponential discounting.

At least for an example with common interest: Take an eq that doesn't lead to z*. By cont at infinity, there is a history on the z*-path such that all continuations are better than the eq. By backward induction, all choices leading to the history have continuation values better than the equilibrium.

There is also a backwards looking legitimate version of 1): You want to show that existing cases and models fit in the framework, or that existing results are subsumed.

I would not read {x_m: m in M} as an indexed set. Formally, an indexed set is a function whose domain is the index set. The set {x_m: m in M} is then the range of this function. Calling it linearly independent is fine. I would then write something like (x_m)_{m in M} for the indexed set itself.

One rule I've seen (N. Higham) is to write out numbers as adjectives but not as names or actual numbers (though 1 can be written out more often). "I talked to two mathematicians who convinced me that 2 is a prime number."

The proof is surprisingly easy: search.app/fHJSeaEV4zfY...

Good catch! The problem now reduces to showing there exists a finite set of states witnessing to an action being undominated.

... For each n, there is a probability distribution on Sn against which the original action is optimal by Pearce's result. But then it is optimal against a mixture of all these distributions, and this mixture has full support.

I think it goes through: Take an undominated action. For every other action, there must be a state at which the original action is better; collect these states in the finite set S1. Starting from S1, create an increasing sequence (Sn) of finite sets of states with a dense union...

With A finite, there can be at least no counterexample in which a unique best reply is not optimal under a full support probability if u is bounded and continuous and S Polish. This follows from weak convergence continuity of expected utility and full support probabilities being dense.
