Definition 1. Let X and Y be two topological spaces. A map f: X → Y is proper if the
preimage under f of any compact set is compact.
Definition 2. A topological space X is said to be compactly generated if the following
condition is satisfied: A subspace A is closed in X if and only if An K is closed in K for all
compact subspaces KC X.
Definition 3. A topological space X is locally compact if the following condition is satis-
fied: For every point x E X, there is a compact subset KCX that contains an (open)
neighborhood of x.
Let f: X Y be a proper, continuous map, and assume Y is a compactly generated,
Hausdorff space. Show that f is a closed map.
