Y is compact if and only if every open cover of Y has a finite subcover


Theorem.
Let X be a topological spaceMathworldPlanetmath and Y a subset of X. Then the followingstatements are equivalentMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath.

  1. 1.

    Y is compactPlanetmathPlanetmath as a subset of X.

  2. 2.

    Every open cover of Y (with open sets in X) has a finitesubcover.

Proof.Suppose Y is compact, and {Ui}iI is an arbitraryopen cover of Y, where Ui are open sets in X. Then{UiY}iI is a collectionMathworldPlanetmath of open sets in Y withunion Y. Since Y is compact, there is a finite subset JIsuch that Y=iJ(UiY). NowY=(iJUi)YiJUi, so{Ui}iJ is finite open cover of Y.

Conversely, suppose every open cover of Y has a finite subcover,and {Ui}iI is an arbitrary collection of open sets(in Y) with union Y. By the definition of the subspace topology,each Ui is of the form Ui=ViY for some open setVi in X. Now UiVi, so {Vi}iI is a coverof Y by open sets in X. By assumptionPlanetmathPlanetmath, it has a finite subcover{Vi}iJ. It follows that{Ui}iJ covers Y, and Y is compact.

The above proof follows the proof given in [1].
