Definition
Given a subspace [ilmath]Y\subset X[/ilmath] of a topological space [ilmath](X,\mathcal{J})[/ilmath], the open sets of [ilmath](Y,\mathcal{J}_\text{subspace})[/ilmath] are said to be relatively open[1] in [ilmath]X[/ilmath]
That (more generally) given a [ilmath]A\subseteq X[/ilmath] the family of sets:
- [ilmath]\{U_A\vert U_A=A\cap U\text{ for some }U\in\mathcal{J}\}[/ilmath]
are all relatively open
