Sequence of Implications of Local Compactness Properties

Theorem

Let $P_1$ and $P_2$ be compactness properties and let:

$P_1 \implies P_2$

mean:

If a topological space $T$ satsifies property $P_1$, then $T$ also satisfies property $P_2$.

Then the following sequence of implications holds:

Proof

The relevant justifications are listed as follows:

• Compact Space is Strongly Locally Compact.

• Strongly Locally Compact Space is Weakly Locally Compact.

• Locally Compact Space is Weakly Locally Compact.

• Compact Space is Weakly $\sigma$-Locally Compact.

• A weakly $\sigma$-locally compact is both weakly locally compact and $\sigma$-compact by definition.

• $\sigma$-Compact Space is Lindelöf.

$\blacksquare$
