Is a subspace of a k-space is a k-space?

153 Views Asked by At

My definition of $k$-space is:

Let be $(X,\tau)$ a topological subspace and $A\subset X$.

$A$ is a $k$-closed in $X$ if $\forall K\subset X$ compact it happens that $A\cap K$ is closed in $K$.

$X$ is a k-space if every $k$-closed of $X$ is closed in $X$.

My question is the following:

I was trying to prove that every closed subspace of a $k$-space is a $k$-space, but in my demonstration I do not use that subspace to be closed. If someone can gave me a clue that is wrong in my demonstration I would appreciate it.

Let be $(X,\tau)$ a $k$-space and $A\subset X$ closed, then $(A,\tau_{A})$ is a $k$-space.

Proof:

Let be $B\subset A$ a $k$-closed.

Then $\forall K\subset A$ compact it happens that $B\cap K$ is closed in $K$.

As $K\subset A \subset X$ and compactness is an absolute property, then $K$ is compact in $X$

$\Rightarrow$ $\forall K$ compact of $X$ it happens that $B\cap K$ is closed in $K$

$\Rightarrow$ $B$ is a $k$-closed of $X$ and $X$ is a $k$-space, then $B$ is closed in $X$.

Finally $\overline{B}^{A}=\overline{B}^{X}\cap A=B\cap A=B$

$\Rightarrow$ $B$ is closed in $A$ and therefore $A$ is a $k$-space

Obs: I mean absolute compactness for the following:

Theorem: Let be $(X,\tau)$ a topological space and $A\subset X$, then $B\subset A$ is compact in $A$ if and only if $B$ is compact in $X$.
