proof

reconsider f = I[01] --> nl as Function of I[01],(I[01] | {0[01]}) ;
let a, b be Point of (I[01] | {0[01]}); :: thesis: a,b are_connected
take f ; :: according to BORSUK_2:def 1 :: thesis: ( f is continuous & f . 0 = a & f . 1 = b )
thus f is continuous ; :: thesis: ( f . 0 = a & f . 1 = b )
( a = nl & b = nl ) by A1, TARSKI:def 1;
hence ( f . 0 = a & f . 1 = b ) by BORSUK_1:def 15, FUNCOP_1:7; :: thesis: verum

end;

then I[01] | {0[01]} is pathwise_connected ;
hence ex b₁ being TopSpace st
( b₁ is strict & b₁ is pathwise_connected & not b₁ is empty ) ; :: thesis: verum
