almost locally compact

Definition

Let X be a topological space and A a subspace of X.
τ(A,X) denotes the family of all open sets in X which contain A. A subfamily B of τ(A,X) is called an outer base if for all U in τ(A,X) there is some V in B included in U.
X is called almost locally compact if the set of all points at which X is not locally compact is contained in a compact set with countable outer character.
