GO-Space Embeds Densely into Linearly Ordered Space

Theorem
Let $\left({Y, \preceq, \tau}\right)$ be a generalized ordered space (GO-space) by Definition 3.

That is:
 * let $\left({Y, \tau}\right)$ be a Hausdorff space

and:
 * let $\tau$ have a sub-basis consisting of upper sets and lower sets relative to $\preceq$.

Then $\left({Y, \preceq, \tau}\right)$ is a GO-space by Definition 2.

That is, there is a linearly ordered space $\left({X, \preceq', \tau'}\right)$ and a mapping from $Y$ to $X$ which is a order embedding and a topological embedding.

Proof
 Let $X$ be the disjoint union of $Y$ with the set of all lower sets $L$ in $Y$ such that $L$ and $Y \setminus L$ are open and nonempty and either:
 * $L$ has a maximum, and $Y\setminus L$ does not have a minimum, or
 * $Y \setminus L$ has a minimum, and $L$ does not have a maximum.

Let $\phi:Y \to X$ be the inclusion mapping.

In the following, let $y$, $y_1$, $y_2$, and $y_3$ represent elements of $Y$, and let $L$, $L_1$, $L_2$, and $L_3$ represent lower sets of $Y$ that are members of $X$.

Define a relation $\preceq'$ extending $\preceq$ by letting:
 * $y_1 \preceq' y_2 \iff y_1 \preceq y_2$
 * $y \preceq' L \iff y \in L$
 * $L_1 \preceq' L_2 \iff L_1 \subseteq L_2$
 * $L \preceq' y \iff y \in Y \setminus L$

By Totally Ordering Toset with Lower Sets and Restriction of Total Ordering is Total Ordering, $\preceq'$ is a total ordering.

Because $y_1 \preceq' y_2$ iff $y_1 \preceq y_2$, $\phi$ is an order embedding.

Let $\tau'$ be the $\preceq'$ order topology on $X$.

$\phi$ is a topological embedding of $\left({Y, \tau}\right)$ into $\left({X, \tau'}\right)$
Let $L^\succeq$ and $L^\succ$ represent upper closure and strict upper closure of $L$ with respect to $\preceq$.

Let $L^{\succeq'}$ and $L^{\succ'}$ represent upper closure and strict upper closure with respect to $\preceq'$.

Let $L^\preceq$ and $L^\prec$ represent lower closure and strict lower closure of $L$ with respect to $\preceq$.

Let $L^{\preceq'}$ and $L^{\prec'}$ represent lower closure and strict lower closure with respect to $\preceq'$.

Open rays from elements of $Y$ are $\tau$-open by Open Ray is Open in GO-Space.

$L^{\preceq'} \cap Y = L$, which is open.

$L^{\succeq'} \cap Y = Y \setminus L$, which is open.

Thus the subspace topology is coarser than $\tau$.

Let $U$ be an open upper set in $Y$ with $\varnothing \subsetneqq U \subsetneqq Y$.

If $U$ has no minimum, then by Upper Set with no Smallest Element is Open in GO-Space, it is open in the subspace topology.

If $Y \setminus U$ has a maximum $p$, then $U = p^\succ = Y \cap p^{\succ'}$, which is open in the subspace topology.

Otherwise, by Lower Set with no Greatest Element is Open in GO-Space, $Y \setminus U$ is open, so $Y \setminus U \in X$.

Then $U = Y \cap \left({Y \setminus U}\right)^{\succ'}$.

A similar argument works for open lower sets, so the subspace topology is finer than $\tau$.

Thus they are equal by definition of set equality.

$Y$ is dense in $X$
Let $L \in X \setminus Y$.

By the definition of $X$, $L$ and $Y \setminus L$ are non-empty, so $L$ is $\preceq'$-preceded by at least one element of $Y$ and is $\preceq'$-succeeded by at least one element of $Y$.

Thus every open ray in $X$ containing $L$ contains an element of $Y$.

Let $x_1, x_2 \in X$ such that $x_1 \prec' L \prec' x_2$.

By the definition of $X$, either $L$ has a $\preceq$-greatest element and $Y \setminus L$ does not have a $\preceq$-smallest element, or $L$ has no $\preceq$-greatest element and $Y \setminus L$ has a $\preceq$-smallest element.

Suppose that $L$ has a $\preceq$-greatest element and $Y \setminus L$ has no $\preceq$-smallest element.

If $x_2 \in Y$, then $x_2 \in Y \setminus L$.

Since $Y \setminus L$ has no $\preceq$-smallest element, there is an element $q\in Y \setminus L$ such that $q \prec x_2$.

Then $x_1 \prec L \prec' q \prec' x_2$, so $q \in Y \cap (x_1 \,.\,.\, x_2)$.

If, on the other hand, $x_2 \notin Y$, then $L \subsetneqq x_2$.

Then there is some $q \in x_2 \setminus L$, so $x_1 \prec' L \prec' q \prec' x_2$, so in particular $q \in Y \cap (x_1 \,.\,.\, x_2)$

If on the other hand we had supposed that $L$ has no $\preceq$-greatest element and $Y \setminus L$ has a $\preceq$-smallest element, we could obtain similar results, with $x_1$ taking on the role we have given $x_2$.

Thus in any case, $L$ is an adherent point of $Y$.

Since every element of $X \setminus Y$ is an adherent point of $Y$, $Y$ is dense in $X$.

Thus the inclusion map from $Y$ to $X$ is a topological embedding and an order embedding of $(Y,\preceq,\tau)$ as a dense subspace of $(X, \preceq', \tau')$.
