Compactness is one of the most important concepts in Topology and Analysis, but it can feel a little mysterious and also contrived when you first learn about it. So what is compactness, intuitively? And why is it so fundamental to so much of modern math? =Chapters= 0:00 - Intro 2:26 - Formal Definition 3:03 - Topology Review 4:03 - Unpacking the Definition 6:33 - What Do Compact Sets Look Like? 8:02 - Sequential Compactness 10:03 - Making a Set Sequentially Compact 14:46 - What is Compactness Good For? 18:45 - Wrap Up 19:22 - Brilliant Ad =============================== The quote about compactness being a "gate-keeper" topic to math students comes from the paper "A pedagogical history of compactness" by Manya Raman-Sundstrom which provides, well, exactly what it says.
