Theorem
Let $T = \struct {S, \tau_p}$ be an infinite particular point space.
Let $A \in \tau_p$ be open in $T$.
Let $A^-$ be the closure of $A$.
Then $A^-$ is not compact.
Proof
From Closure of Open Set of Particular Point Space, we have that $A^- = S$.
The result follows from Infinite Particular Point Space is not Compact.
