Examples
Basic statements
closed subspaces of compact Hausdorff spaces are equivalently compact subspaces
open subspaces of compact Hausdorff spaces are locally compact
compact spaces equivalently have converging subnet of every net
continuous metric space valued function on compact metric space is uniformly continuous
paracompact Hausdorff spaces equivalently admit subordinate partitions of unity
injective proper maps to locally compact spaces are equivalently the closed embeddings
locally compact and second-countable spaces are sigma-compact

Analysis Theorems
The real projective space is the projective space of the real vector space .
Equivalently this is the Grassmannian .
(CW-complex structure)
For , the real projective space admits the structure of a CW-complex.
Use that is the quotient space of the Euclidean n-sphere by the -action which identifies antipodal points.
The standard CW-complex structure of realizes it via two -cells for all , such that this -action restricts to a homeomorphism between the two -cells for each . Thus has a CW-complex structure with a single -cell for all .
The infinite real projective space is the classifying space for real line bundles. It has the homotopy type of the Eilenberg-MacLane space .
