Stream: Is there code for X?

Topic: is_compact.nonempty_inter_of...

Do we have a variant of docs#is_compact.nonempty_Inter_of_directed_nonempty_compact_closed which instead of assuming that the collection of sets is directed instead assumes that the intersection of any finite subcollection of the sets is nonempty?

This is the contrapositive of "every open cover has a finite subcover" right?

Adam Topaz (May 26 2021 at 14:53):

Oh it's called docs#is_compact.inter_Inter_nonempty

Kevin Buzzard (May 26 2021 at 14:54):

(...so I was going to suggest looking near is_compact.elim_finite_subcover)

Adam Topaz (May 26 2021 at 14:55):

Yeah that's exactly the code for this inter_Inter_nonempty. Who comes up with these names :rofl: ?
