Idea

Stably compact spaces are topological spaces which share many of the desirable properties of compact Hausdorff spaces, such as compactness and local compactness, without being Hausdorff or even T1.

They are also a convenient setting for convergence in an ordered setting, being deeply linked to compact ordered spaces.

Definition

A topological space XX is called stably compact if the following conditions are met:

Note that the latter notion of coherence is slightly different than the one given at coherent space.

Connection with compact ordered spaces

(…)

Connection with compact regular bitopological spaces

(…) For details see (Jung-Moshier 2006).
