Time span. Do you think the mathematical intervals using sets can
model a time span?

Of course you can. You can model time with the real
numbers. You can also model time with discrete milliseconds,
or days for that matter, depending on what you need the
model to be able to do.

Then, what do the open and closed intervals correspond to here?

Relative to which model are you asking? And who said there
had to be a correspondence?


time
span minus the two time instants? Then what are the new endpoints for
the time span?

Who said a time span had to have endpoints? What is the
earliest possible time that is strictly after noon?

12:00:01?
12:00:00.1?
12:00:00.01?
12:00:00.001?
12:00:00.0001?
