Compact Topological Space and Compact Subset

Statement

Let (X,T)(X,\mathcal{T}) be a topological space.

We say that XX is compact if for every set II and every family of subsets of XX (Ui)i∈I(U_i)_{i\in I} such that Ui∈TU_i\in\mathcal{T} for every i∈Ii\in I and

X⊆⋃i∈IUi,X\subseteq\bigcup_{i\in I}U_i,

there exists a finite subset J⊆IJ\subseteq I such that

X⊆⋃i∈JUi,X\subseteq\bigcup_{i\in J}U_i,

where a union indexed by the empty set is empty.

If A⊆XA\subseteq X, we say that AA is compact in XX if AA is compact as a topological space equipped with the subspace topology.
