Arens-Fort Space is not Locally Connected

Theorem
Let $T = \left({S, \tau}\right)$ be the Arens-Fort space.

Then $T$ is not a locally connected space.

Proof
Let $\mathcal U_0$ be a local basis for $\left({0, 0}\right)$.

Let $U \in \mathcal U_0$.

By definition of local basis, $U$ is open in $T$.

From Clopen Points in Arens-Fort Space, $\left\{ {\left({0, 0}\right)}\right\}$ is not open in $T$.

So $U \ne \left\{ {\left({0, 0}\right)}\right\}$.

Therefore:
 * $\exists p \in U: p \ne \left({0, 0}\right)$

From Singleton of Element is Subset:
 * $\left\{ {p}\right\} \subseteq U$

From Clopen Points in Arens-Fort Space it follows that $\left\{ {p}\right\}$ is clopen.

As $U \in U_0$ it follows by definition of local basis that:
 * $\left({0, 0}\right) \in U$

and so:
 * $U \ne \left\{ {p}\right\}$

That is:
 * $\left\{ {p}\right\} \subsetneq U$

From Connected iff no Proper Clopen Sets, the set $U$ is not connected.

It is deduced that any local basis is formed with disconnected sets.

Thus, by definition, $T$ is not locally connected.
