discrete topology functor

Notation D:Set→TopD: \Set \to \Top Domain category of setsCodomain category of topological spacesRight adjoint forgetful functor for topological spaces Related II External nLab link
This functor maps a set XX to the discrete topological space D(X)≔(X,P(X))D(X) \coloneqq (X, P(X)) in which every subset is open. It is a typical example of a fully faithful functor that preserves finite but does not preserve infinite products.
