compactness and relative compactness












0












$begingroup$


Suppose that $M$ is compact subset of a Banach space X. Is $M$ relatively compact too?



As far as I know, there is a characterisation of compact sets via Hausdorff $varepsilon$ - net theorem and it's the same for compact and relatively compact sets. So the answer should be positive.

    A subset is relatively compact if its closure is compact. Every compact subset is closed. This should do it.

I don't know what your definition of 'relatively compact' is but according to the usual definition a set is raltively compact if its closure is compact. Since compact sets are already closed it is obvious that they are also relatively compact.

    For a subset $S$ of a topological space, being relatively compact means that $overline S$ is compact. So, if $M$ is compact, then, since $overline M=M$, which is compact, $M$ is relatively compact too.
