Compact sets in uniform spaces #
compactSpace_uniformity: On a compact uniform space, the topology determines the uniform structure, entourages are exactly the neighborhoods of the diagonal.
Let c : ι → Set α be an open cover of a compact set s. Then there exists an entourage
n such that for each x ∈ s its n-neighborhood is contained in some c i.
Let U : ι → Set α be an open cover of a compact set K.
Then there exists an entourage V
such that for each x ∈ K its V-neighborhood is included in some U i.
Moreover, one can choose an entourage from a given basis.
Let c : Set (Set α) be an open cover of a compact set s. Then there exists an entourage
n such that for each x ∈ s its n-neighborhood is contained in some t ∈ c.
If K is a compact set in a uniform space and {V i | p i} is a basis of entourages,
then {⋃ x ∈ K, UniformSpace.ball x (V i) | p i} is a basis of 𝓝ˢ K.
Here "{s i | p i} is a basis of a filter l" means Filter.HasBasis l p s.
A useful consequence of the Lebesgue number lemma: given any compact set K contained in an
open set U, we can find an (open) entourage V such that the ball of size V about any point of
K is contained in U.
