In general topological spaces, however, the different notions of compactness are not necessarily equivalent, and the most useful notion, introduced by Pavel Alexandrov and Pavel Urysohn in 1929, involves the existence of certain finite families of open sets that " cover " the space in the sense that each point of the space must lie in some set contained in the family.

The given example sequence shows the importance of including the boundary points of the interval, since the limit points must be in the space itself: an open ( or half-open ) interval of the real numbers is not compact.

In general topological spaces, however, the different notions of compactness are not equivalent, and the most useful notion of compactness — originally called bicompactness — involves families of open sets that " cover " the space in the sense that each point of the space must lie in some set contained in the family.
