We define the subset $Asubset mathbb{R}$ as follows: $xin A$ if and only if there exists $c>0$ so that
$$ |x-j2^{-k}|geq c2^{-k} $$
holds for all $jin mathbb{Z}$ and integers $kgeq 0$. Prove that $A$ is dense




So I tried showing that for any interval $(a,b)in mathbb{R}, (a,b)cap A neq emptyset$. But I am having quite a bit of trouble. Does anyone have a hint on how to proceed?

If $x $ is a rational number wchich can be represent as $frac{s}{l} $ with $GCD(s,l)=1 $ and such that $2 $ not divide $l$ then $xin A.$ This is because that $$|2^k x -j|geqfrac{1}{|l|}$$ for all $jin mathbb{Z}.$ But set of such $x$ is dense in $mathbb{R}.$

    @elrond for a fixed prime $p>2$ the set ${k/p^m}$ is dense (it actually is true even if $p$ is not prime). This is because for any $xinmathbb{R}$ and any $m$ there's one of those rationals between $x$ and $x+1/p^m$.

$x in A Longleftrightarrow$

there exists $c > 0$ with $forall j in Z$, integer $n geq 0$, $c leq |2^nx - j|.$



$x notin A Longleftrightarrow$
$forall c > 0$, there exists $j in Z$, integer $n geq 0$ with $|2^nx - j| < c$
$Longleftrightarrow$

exists $j in Z$, integer $n geq 0$ with $x = j/2^n$
$Longleftrightarrow x$ is a dyadic rational.



Since $R - Q subset R - { x : x text{ dyadic rational } } = A$

and $R - Q$ is dense, $A$ is dense.
