  • Topological Characterisation of the real line.

Let $A$ be a path-connected subset of $mathbb R^2$ such that the removal of any singleton from $A$ splits $A$ into two open connected components, each of which is path-connected.



Is $A$ necessarily homeomorphic to $mathbb{R}$?

Ward has given the following characterization of the real line: a connected, locally connected separable metric space in which each point is a cut point, i.e., its removal splits the space into two connected subsets (Proc. London Math. Soc. 1936). This implies a positive answer to your question, assuming the set has more than one point.

  • In order to apply this result, we need to establish the local connectednes sof $A$. And how to prove this fact?
