Math 468

Problem set 5, due Friday, February 27

Prove either one of the following (not both):

1. A naive topological space X is compact if and only if every sequence of points in X has a convergent subsequence.

2. A naive topological space X is compact if and only if every infinite subset of X has a limit point in X.

If you want, you might try to explain:

3. Every sequence of points in X has a convergent subsequence if and only if every infinite subset of X has a limit point in X.
