Take for instance $\mathbb{R}^{\mathbb{R}}$ with the product topology or the weak topology on an infinite-dimensional Banach space. You will find more examples here.

It will be compact, as the function that sends $\alpha \in [0,1]$ to $\alpha x + (1-\alpha)y$ is continuous (as all vector operations are, details omitted). And the continuous image of a compact space ($[0,1]$) is compact. Compact need not imply closed for non-Hausdorff spaces. To give a rather extreme counterexample, suppose that $E$ has the indiscrete ...

If for every open neighborhood $U$ we have $x\in M+U$ then $(x-U)\cap M\neq \emptyset$ hence $x\in\overline{M}.$

Let $h\in B(f,\epsilon_0,...,\epsilon_r)\cap B(g,\mu_0,...,\mu_s)$ and suppose $r\leq s$. Let $h$ be a function in the intersection. We shall write $||q||=\sup_{x\in [a,b]} q(x)$ for the sup norm. For $i\leq r$ let $\eta_i$ be such that $||h^{(i)}-f^{(i)}||+\eta_i<\epsilon_i,||h^{(i)}-g^{(i)}||<\mu_i$. For $i>r,$ just let $\eta_i$ be such that ...

I would have said that the suspension was $X \times [-1, 1]$ modulo the relation that $$(x, a) \sim (x', a')$$ if and only iff $a = a' = 1$ or $a = a' = -1$, or $a = a'$ and $x = x'$. Wikipedia seems to agree with me. It looks as if your author was a little glib, and failed to mention that the "bottom" and "top" sets of equivalent points were not ...

In fact in my experience the unreduced suspension is commonly written in the way you did it, although it is wrong. What it means is: collapse one side to a point and also the other side. But NOT both to the same point. So this would be only right when quotiening is associative, i.e. $$SX = (X \times I/ X\times \{0\} )/ (X \times \{1\}) "=" X \times I / ... 1 The topology is generated by sets of the form$$ U_{f,r}=\{g\in C[0,1]: d(\,f,g)<r\}=f+\{g\in C[0,1]: d(0,g)<r\}. $$Note that$$ U_{0,r}+U_{0,r}\subset U_{0,2r}. $$It suffices to show that$$ (\lambda,f)\longmapsto \lambda f,\quad\text{and}\quad (f,g)\longmapsto f+g,  are continuous. with respect to above topology. a. If $f+g\in V$, \$V\subset ...
