Irreducible Space is Pseudocompact

Theorem

Let $T = \struct {S, \tau}$ be a topological space which is irreducible.


Then $T$ is pseudocompact.


Proof

We have that Continuous Real-Valued Function on Irreducible Space is Constant.

A constant mapping is trivially bounded.

Hence the result by definition of pseudocompact.

$\blacksquare$
