KEYWORDS: open cover, compact, connected, topological space, example, counterexamples, continuous function, locally compact, countably compact, limit point compact, sequentially compact, lindelöf , paracompact --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date of Submission: 15-01-2021 Date of acceptance: 30-01-2021 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I. INTRODUCTION We begin by presenting some definitions, notations,examples and some theorems that are essential for concept of compactness in advanced topology .For more detailed, see [1-2], [7-10] and others, in references .If X is a closed bounded subset of the real line ℝ, then any family of open sets in ℝ whose union contains X has a finite sub family whose union also contains X . If X is a metric space or topological space in its own right , then the above proposition can be thought as saying that any class of open sets in X whose union is equal to X has a finite subclass whose union is also equal to X. -

A space starts with a set on which you wish to place some notion of points being “near” to each other, without necessary actually having a notion of distance like Euclidean space. This notion is a called a topology, and a set together with a topology is called a topological space. The definition of a topology is rather simple: it is a collection of subsets known as its open sets satisfying certain axioms. In Euclidean space, the open sets consist of the union of open balls about points. -

It's ideas and methods have transformed large parts of geometry and analysis almost beyond recognition. In this course we will study not only introduce to new concept and the theorem but also put into old ones like continuous functions. Its influence is evident in almost every other branch of mathematics.In this course we study an axiomatic development of point set topology, connectivity, compactness, separability, metrizability and function spaces.

We say that Y is a quotient of X (with respect to p) if p : X Y is surjective 1 ! and the topology on Y is such that U Y open, if, and only if p− (U) is open in X. This topology is called a quotient topology on⊂ Y (induced by p), and p is called a quotient map. 1 Note that since p is surjective, we always have p(p− (B)) = B, for all B Y. -
Various Notions of Compactness
Various Notions of Compactness Yao-Liang Yu Department of Computing Science University of Alberta Edmonton, AB T6G 2E8, Canada [email protected] June 18, 2012 Abstract We document various notions of compactness, with some of their useful properties. Our main reference is [Engelking, 1989]. For counterexamples, refer to [Steen and Seebach Jr., 1995] while for background, see the excellent textbooks [Willard, 2004] or [Munkres, 2000]. Some of the proofs are taken freely from the internet. The writer expresses his gratitude to all sources. 1 Definitions Our domain in this note will always be some topological space (X ; τ). Recall the usual definition of com- pactness: Definition 1 (Compact) K ⊆ X is compact if every open cover of it has a finite subcover1. As usual we may have \countable" versions2: Definition 2 (Countably Compact) K ⊆ X is countably compact3 if every countable open cover of it has a finite subcover. Definition 3 (Lindel¨of) K ⊆ X is Lindel¨ofif every open cover of it has a countable subcover. Of course one immediately sees that K is compact iff K is countably compact and Lindel¨of.The contrapos- itive of the definition also tells us that K is (countably) compact iff any (countable) collection of closed sets with finite intersection property has nonempty intersection. Definition 4 (Limit point Compact) K ⊆ X is limit point compact if every infinite subset of it has a limit point. Recall that x 2 X is a limit point of the set K if every neighbourhood of x intersects K − fxg. For a net 4 fxλgλ2Λ we define x as its cluster point if for every neighbourhood O of x, the index set fλ : xλ 2 Og is cofinal in Λ. -

Math 751 115 Fall 2010 B. Various Forms of Compactness in Addition
Math 751 115 Fall 2010 B. Various Forms of Compactness In addition to the formulation of compactness presented above in terms of open covers, there are other useful versions. We will introduce several alternative notions of compactness and explore conditions under which they are equivalent. Recall that a point x of a topological space X is a limit point or accumulation point of a subset A of X if every neighborhood of x intersects A – { x }. Definition. A topological space X is limit point compact or accumulation point compact if every infinite subset of X has a limit point in X. Definition. Let x : N → X and y : N → X be sequences in a topological space X. y is a subsequence of x if there is a strictly increasing function n : N → N such that y = xºn. In other words, { yi } is a subsequence of { xi } is there are positive integers n(1) < n(2) < n(3) < … such that yi = xn(i) for i ∈ N. Recall that the sequence y : N → X converges to a point z ∈ X if for every neighborhood U of z in X, there is a positive integer n such that y(i) ∈ U for every i ≥ n. Definition. A topological space X is sequentially compact if every sequence in X has a converging subsequence. Definition. A topological space X is countably compact if every countable open cover of X has a finite subcover. Definition. A topological space X is Lindelöf if every open cover of X has a countable subcover. The relations between the various forms of compactness just defined are illustrated by the following figure.
