A discrete topology on the integers, Z, is defined by letting every subset of Z be open If that is true then Z is a discrete topological space and it is equipped with a discrete topology.
Now is it compact?
We know that a discrete space is compact if and only if it is finite. Clearly Z is not finite, so the answer is no. If you picked a finite field such a Z7 ( integers mod 7) then the answer would be yes.

Can give the Examples for compact spaces in topology?
Any closed bounded subset of a metric space is compact.
What does it mean for a subspace of a topological space to be ''somewhere dense''?
Somewhere dense is defined to be the following:Let B, t be a topological space and C ⊂ B. C is somewhere dense if (Cl C)o ≠Ø, the empty set. That is, if the closure of the interior of C has at least one non-empty set.See related links for more information.
In R with discrete metric space what is open set?
any interval subset of R is open and closed
What is homotopy in mathematics?
This article is about topology. For chemistry, see Homotopic groups.The two bold paths shown above are homotopic relative to their endpoints. Thin lines mark isocontours of one possible homotopy.In topology, two continuous functions from one topological space to another are called homotopic (Greek homos = identical and topos = place) if one can be "continuously deformed" into the other, such a deformation being called a homotopy between the two functions. An outstanding use of homotopy is the definition of homotopy groups and cohomotopy groups, important invariants in algebraic topology. In practice, there are technical difficulties in using homotopies with certain pathological spaces. Consequently most algebraic topologists work with compactly generated spaces, CW complexes, or spectra.
Is a cone two dimensional or three dimensional?
A cone with included interior is 3-dimensional. However, if you are not including the interior it is a 2-dimensional surface residing in a 3-d ambient space. If you're utilizing the common topological definition of dimension, you can derive that a cone (surface only) is 2 dimensional by looking at its open sets.
What is the definition of coaser?
"Coarser" usually refers to something that has a rougher or less refined texture or quality compared to something else. For example, coarser sand would have larger grains than finer sand.
What notation is used to symbolize a topological space?
A topological space is simply a set, B, with topology t (see the related link for a definition), and is often denoted as B, t which is similar to how a metric space is often denoted; B, D.
Are all Hilbert Spaces Locally Compact?
No. Every infinite dimensional topological vector space is not locally compact. See the Wikipedia article on locally compact spaces.
Can give the Examples for compact spaces in topology?
Any closed bounded subset of a metric space is compact.
What is material uniformity?
A family of subsets of the direct product of a topological space with itself that is used to derive a uniform topology for the space. Also known as uniform structure.
What has the author Pieter Cornelis Baayen written?
Pieter Cornelis Baayen has written: 'Universal morphisms' -- subject(s): Hilbert space, Categories (Mathematics), Linear topological spaces, Topology
Is a point is a zero dimensional?
In mathematics, a zero-dimensional topological space is a topological space that ... any point in the space is contained in exactly one open set of this refinement.
What is Cl short for in topology?
Cl is often used as shorthand for closure, e.g. if B, tis a topological space then Cl B is the closure of B. The closure of a topological space B, t is defined as the intersection of all of the closed sets containing B. The closure of C ⊂ B where B, D is a metric space is defined as all of the elements of B that have a 0 metric with C, written asCl C = {b Є B | D(b, C) = 0}.See related links.
What do yo mean by Discrete mathematics?
Discrete Mathematics is mathematics that deals with discrete objects and operations, often using computable and/or iterative methods. It is usually opposed to continuous mathematics (e.g. classical calculus). Discreteness here refers to a property of subjects of discourse. Some collection of things is called discrete if these things are distinguishable and not continuously transformable into each other. An example would be the collection of natural numbers, but not the real numbers. In topology, a space is called discrete if every subset is open. In constructivism, a set is called discrete if equality of two elements is always decidable.
What is a Betti number?
A Betti number is a number associated to each topological space and dimension, giving an approximate number of holes of that dimension in that space.
Is it proven that algenraic functions turn dyslexic topological polynomials on their head in Non-Non-Euclidean Riemannian after-space?
no
What is topological space?
The wikipedia article says, 'The definition of a topological space relies only uponset theory and is the most general notion of a mathematical "space" that allows for the definition of concepts such as continuity, connectedness, and convergence.'These are abstract spaces where distance is, in some sense, ignored. When Euler considered the 'seven bridges of Koenigsberg problem', for instance, he appreciated that he was ignoring the distances between the bridges and was considering only how they were connected--so that someone could traverse each of them just once. Since that time, of course, the idea of a topological space has permeated many areas of mathematics.See the related link.
