I am trying to solve this problem, and i think i did something, but finally i couldn't get the conclusion. The question is:
- Let $(X,d)$ be a metric space and let $A,B \subset X$. If $A$ is an open dense subset, and $B$ is a dense subset, then is $A \cap B$ dense in $X$?.
Well, i think this is true. We have to show that $\overline{A \cap B}=X$. Or in other words, $B(x,r) \cap (A \cap B) \neq \emptyset$ for any $x \in X$. Since $A$ is dense in $X$, so we have $B(x,r) \cap A \neq\emptyset$. That means there is a $y \in B(x,r) \cap A$. Which means there is a $y \in A$. And since $A$ is open we have $B(y,r_{1}) \subseteq A$ for some $r_{1} > 0$. Couldn't get any further. I did try some more from here on, but couldn't get it. Any idea for proving it or giving a counter example.
