Order Topology equals Dual Order Topology

Theorem
Let $(X, \preceq)$ be a totally ordered set.

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

Let $\tau'$ be the $\succeq$-order topology on $X$, where $\succeq$ is the dual ordering of $\preceq$.

Then $\tau' = \tau$.

Proof
Let $U$ be an open ray in $(X, \preceq)$.

By Open Ray is Dual to Open Ray, $U$ is an open ray in $(X, \preceq)$.

Since the open rays in a totally ordered set form a sub-basis for the topology on that set, $\tau'$ is finer than $\tau$.

By the same argument, $\tau$ is finer than $\tau'$.

Thus by Equality of Sets, $\tau' = \tau$.
