  Compactness
A compact subset of R with its usual metric is closed and bounded.
Any closed bounded subset of R with its usual metric is compact.
The closed bounded interval is compact and hence its image is compact and hence is also a closed bounded subset which is in fact an interval also, by connectedness.

 NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Spectrum of an operator
In mathematics, the essential spectrum of a bounded operator is a certain subset of its spectrum, defined by a condition of the type that says, roughly speaking, fails badly to be invertible.
A bounded operator may be viewed as an element of a Banach algebra, with the definition of spectrum transferred verbatim from that context.
The spectrum of an unbounded operator is in general a closed, possibly empty, subset of the complex plane.

In mathematics, bounded variation refers a to real-valued functions whose total variation is bounded i.e.
Functions of bounded variation, BV functions, are functions whose distributional derivative is a finite Radon measure.
Functions of bounded variation have been studied in connection with the set of discontinuities of functions and differentiability of real functions, and the following results are well-known.

 Functionally bounded subsets of topological spaces, by Manuel Sanchis Lopez   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Functionally bounded subsets and some related concepts arose, in a natural way, during the study of the topological properties induced by real-valued continuous functions.
The denomination functionally bounded has been used in the theory of Hausdorff topological groups (J.Trigos-Arrieta, 1991) to distinguish between this concept and the concept of the bounded subset in the sense of precompact subset.
These subsets play an important role in the field of Hausdorff topological groups: every functionally bounded subset of a Hausdorff topological group is strongly bounded.

Supremum and infimum may not be achievable for a bounded function f defined on [a,b]; that is, there may not exist a point x_0 in [a,b] such that f(x_0)=sup f(x) or f(x_0)=inf f(x).

 Wikinfo | Metric space   (Site not responding. Last check: )
A subset of M which is a union of (finitely or infinitely many) open balls is called an open set.
A metric space M is called bounded if there exists some number r > 0 such that d(x,y) ≤ r for all x and y in M (not to be confused with "finite", which refers to the number of elements, not to how far the set extends; finiteness implies boundedness, but not conversely).
An important consequence is that every metric space admits partitions of unity and that every continuous real-valued function defined on a closed subset of a metric space can be extended to a continuous map on the whole space (Tietze extension theorem).

 Overview of Field Computation
A field is treated mathematically as a continuous function over a bounded set representing the spatial extent of the field.
Typically, the value of the function is restricted to some bounded subset of the real numbers, but complex- and vector-valued fields are also useful.
I have already mentioned that fields are continuous functions over a bounded domain that take their values in a bounded subset of a linear space.

 Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Local boundedness
A family of functions is locally bounded, if for any point in their domain all the functions are bounded around that point and by the same number.
In other words, all the functions in the family must be locally bounded, and around each point they need to be bounded by the same constant.
This family is then more than locally bounded, it is actually uniformly bounded.

The "compact iff closed and bounded" property is confined to finite dimensional spaces.
Otoh if V is a topological vector space there is a standard notion of "bounded subset"; if V is a metrizable topological vector space then a bounded subset is not at all the same thing as a subset which is bounded as a subset of the corresponding metric space.
This is unfortunate because it can cause confusion - people sometimes think that a bounded subset of V is a subset of finite diameter in "the" metric.

In a generalisation of area under a graph of a function it is normally assumed that the function under consideration be bounded.
For bounded function the range of the function is bounded and hence any subset of the range is also bounded.
Because subset not bounded above does not have supremum and subset not bounded below does not have infimum, for unbounded functions lower and upper Riemann sums cannot be defined.

 Bounded Complex Domains
What the Shilov boundary is good for is that it is the minimal subset of the topological boundary over which you can integrate an analytic function to reproduce its interior values by the Poisson kernel.
The compact manifold that represents 4-dim internal symmetry space is CP2, the Shilov boundary of the bounded complex homogeneous domain that corresponds to SU(3) / (SU(2)xU(1)).
The Shilov boundary of an irreducible bounded symmetric domain is a flag manifold of the 1st kind or of the 2nd kind, according as the domain is of tube type or not.

Thanks for enlightening me. Keep in mind that "bounded" only makes sense in a metric space, and that "closed" implies X is a subset of something else (evey topological space is closed in itself).
Thus for subsets of a _complete_ metric space, X is compact iff it is closed and _totally_ bounded.
Totally bounded (or "pre-compact") means that for every positive epsilon there exists a finite epsilon-dense subset (or equiv., there exists a finite cover by sets of diameter < epsilon).

 \bf The Duality Between Aglebraic Posets and Bialgebraic Frames: A Lattice Theoretic Perspective
This terminology may be traced to the well-known fact that the open-set lattice for the prime spectrum of a bounded, distributive lattice is a coherent frame (see Johnstone [13]).
P is order-isomorphic to the prime spectrum of a bounded, distributive lattice in which every element is the join of a finite set of join-prime elements.
P is order-isomorphic to the prime spectrum of a bounded, relatively normal lattice in which every element is the join of a finite set of join-prime elements.
