| We prove two basic facts about finite intervals in the lattice of topologies on a set. One result states that a finite lattice is isomorphic to an interval of topologies if and only if it is isomorphic to an interval of topologies on a finite set, the other that not every finite lattice is an interval of topologies, although every finite lattice may be embedded into the lattice of topologies on a finite set. |
