Feebly compact space

From HandWiki
Short description: Mathematics concept

In mathematics, a topological space is feebly compact if every locally finite cover by nonempty open sets is finite. The concept was introduced by Sibe Mardešić and P. Papić in 1955.[1]

Some facts:

  • Every compact space is feebly compact.[1]
  • Every feebly compact space is pseudocompact but the converse is not necessarily true.[1]
  • Any maximal feebly compact space is submaximal.[2]
