Paracompact Hausdorff Spaces
Paracompact spaces are sometimes required to also be Hausdorff to extend their properties.
- (Theorem of Jean Dieudonné) Every paracompact Hausdorff space is normal.
- Every paracompact Hausdorff space is a shrinking space, that is, every open cover of a paracompact Hausdorff space has a shrinking: another open cover indexed by the same set such that the closure of every set in the new cover lies inside the corresponding set in the old cover.
- On paracompact Hausdorff spaces, the cohomology of a sheaf is equal to its Čech cohomology.

Famous quotes containing the word spaces:
“Deep down, the US, with its space, its technological refinement, its bluff good conscience, even in those spaces which it opens up for simulation, is the only remaining primitive society.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
