    This paper remarks that it is possible to express that a finitely branching tree is well-founded as the fact that an associated topological space is discrete. In this way, one can formulate the fact that some orders are well-founded (e.g., the fact that \(\epsilon_0\) is well-ordered) in a topological way.
