Another nice property of Hausdorff spaces is that compact sets are always closed.

This is an example of the general rule that compact sets often behave like points.

One clever compact set was a car carrier with folding ramp and four cars.

Every relatively compact set in a topological vector space is bounded.

However, the intent is to provide a simple, compact set of links to all these systems - not to illustrate every relationship.

Most of the barriers can also be stacked, and they are shipped collapsed in compact sets.

Hence he had installed two compact short-wave sets, one at either end of the island.

She unsnapped a compact set of binoculars from her field jacket and passed them to Nate.

This property is sometimes referred to in words as "approximation from within by compact sets."

Within this order, the compact elements are just the compact sets.
