Compactness in apartness spaces?

Authors: Douglas Bridges, Hajime Ishihara, Peter Schuster, and Luminita S. Vita

Abstract
A major problem in the constructive theory of apartness spaces is that of finding a good notion of compactness. Such a notion should (i) reduce to ``complete plus totally bounded'' for uniform spaces and (ii) classically be equivalent to the usual Heine-Borel-Lebesgue property for the apartness topology. The constructive counterpart of the smallest uniform structure compatible with a given apartness, while not constructively a uniform structure, offers a possible solution to the compactness-definition problem. That counterpart turns out to be interesting in its own right, and reveals some additional properties of an apartness that may have uses elsewhere in the theory.
