 Discrete space Information - TextSheet.com
The underlying uniformity on a discrete metric space is the discrete uniformity, and the underlying topology on a discrete uniform space is the discrete topology.
In topology and related fields of mathematics, a discrete space is a particularly simple example of a topological space or similar structure, one in which the points are "isolated" from each other in a certain sense.
However, the discrete metric space is free in the category of bounded metric spaces and Lipschitz continuous maps, and it is free in the category of metric spaces bounded by one and nonexpansive maps.

 PlanetMath: second countable
A topological space is said to be second countable if it has a countable basis.
It can be shown that a second countable space is both Lindelöf and separable, although the converses fail.

 Paracompact space Information - TextSheet.com
A paracompact space is a topological space in which every open cover admits an open locally finite refinement.
For instance, the integral of differential forms on paracompact manifolds is first defined locally (where the manifold looks like Euclidean space and the integral is well known), and this definition is then extended to the whole space via a partition of unity.
The most important feature of paracompact Hausdorff spaces is that they are normal and admit partitions of unity relative to any open cover.

 Second-countable space - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For metric spaces, however, the properties of being second-countable, separable, and Lindelöf are all equivalent.
Like other countability axioms, the property of being second-countable restricts the number of open sets that a space can have.
Although the usual base of open balls is not countable, one can restrict to the set of all open balls with rational radii and whose centers have rational coordinates.

 First and Second Countable
A topology is second countable if it has a second countable base.
If every point p in a topological space has a countable base at p, the base is first countable.
The most common example is a metric space, where base sets are open balls, and each base set is assigned to its center.

The main result is that the fundamental group of a second countable, connected, locally path connected one-dimensional metric space is free if and only if it is countable, if and only if the space has a universal cover.
We use these equivalencies to prove that every connected, locally path connected separable metric space whose fundamental group is a free group admits a universal covering space.
To begin, we define several homotopy theoretic conditions which we then prove are equivalent to the existence of a universal covering space.

 Nonlinear Science FAQ
If we have such a Baire space of dynamical systems, and there is a property which is true on a countable intersection of open dense sets, then that property is generic.
Thus the phase space of the planar pendulum is two-dimensional, consisting of the position (angle) and velocity.
In these cases the real space maps, in a rather abstract way, to an inverse space, which is comprised of continuous and discrete parts and evolves linearly in time.

 Rupert Venzke - DIMACS REU Program (Summer 2002)
By a smooth manifold, we roughly mean an ( infinitely) differentiable, locally Euclidean Hausdorff space that is "second countable." In other words, the space under consideration has just about all of the properties one would normally expect of a smooth surface in R^3.
Our Lie Algebra will simply be the tangent space to the Lie Group at the identity, and its representation will be the differential of ρ mapping it into the module of endomorphisms on a vector space.
More generally, a Lie Algebra is essentially a vector space with a bracket product and satisfying certain important relations.

 Re: Separability
First, a topological space X is separable if and only if it has a countable dense subset Y, i.e., the closure of Y = X. Being separable and second countability are equivalent for metrizable topological spaces; for general topological spaces, second countability is the stronger property.
