assume that
A1: P1 is_an_arc_of p1,p2 and
A2: P1 c= P and
A3: Q = P1 \ {p1,p2} ; :: thesis: Q is connected
[#] ((TOP-REAL n) | P1) = P1 by PRE_TOPC:def 10;
then reconsider Q9 = Q as Subset of ((TOP-REAL n) | P1) by A3, XBOOLE_1:36;
Q9 is connected by A1, A3, Th53;
hence Q is connected by A2, Th54; :: thesis: verum
