Relative sequence compactness
The relative sequential compactness is a term used in topology , a branch of mathematics . It combines the two properties of sequence compactness and relative compactness and thus provides the existence of accumulation points in the topological closure.
definition
A topological space is given . A subset is said to be relatively sequence- compact if every sequence of elements of has a convergent subsequence with a limit value in its topological closure .
Clarifications
In order to express which topology or which concept of convergence is used, a corresponding concept is sometimes used. Thus, for example, one speaks of weakly relatively sequence-compact sets when it is a question of weak convergence , or of vague relatively sequence-compact sets when it is a question of vague convergence .
sentences
