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

injective proper maps to locally compact spaces are equivalently the closed embeddings
locally compact and second-countable spaces are sigma-compact
Theorems
Analysis Theorems
Given a manifold , such as the 3-sphere, its space of knots is a topological space parametrizing knots in , hence something like the topological subspace
of the space of maps on those maps which are embeddings. This space is often denoted just .
A knot invariant is then equivalently a locally constant function on the space of knots.
