Variational Analysis
Sequential compactness is a property of a space where every sequence of points has a subsequence that converges to a limit point within the same space. This concept is essential in understanding convergence in various mathematical contexts, particularly in functional analysis and variational convergence. The property is closely related to the completeness of spaces and plays a significant role in optimization problems, as it ensures that limits of minimizing sequences can be found within the space.
