Modified Fort Space is Sequentially Compact

Theorem
Let $T = \struct {S, \tau_{a, b} }$ be a modified Fort space.

Then $T$ is sequentially compact.

Proof
Let $\sequence {x_n}_{n \mathop \in \N}$ be an infinite sequence in $T$.

Suppose $\sequence {x_n}$ takes an infinite number of distinct values in $S$.

Then there is an infinite subsequence $\sequence {x_{n_r} }_{r \mathop \in \N}$ with distinct terms.

Let $U$ be a neighborhood of $a$.

Then $S \setminus U$ is a finite set by definition.

Thus there exists $N \in \N$ such that $\forall r > N: x_{n_r} \in U$.

Thus $\sequence {x_{n_r} }$ converges to $a$.

Otherwise $\sequence {x_n}$ only takes a finite number of distinct values.

Then, since $\sequence {x_n}$ is infinite, there exists $x \in S$ such that:
 * $\forall N \in \N: \exists n > N: x = x_n$

This implies that we can take a subsequence of $\sequence {x_n}$ which is constant, and which converges to that constant.

We can conclude then that, by definition, $T$ is a sequentially compact space.
