... That M is a 2{manifold follows from the fact that the two triangles forming T (y; z; n) may be opened out to make room for the interval fyg (z − 1=n; z + 1=n) to give a region homeomorphic to a square. Then M is not metrisable because it is not Lindelöf, containing an uncountable closed discrete ...
