Normal space: A topological space is termed normal if all points are closed sets (the T1 assumption), and any two disjoint closed subsets can be separated by disjoint open subsets.

In some definitions, the T1 assumption is skipped.

Related terms: normality (the property of a topological space being normal)

Term variations: Variations of normality offers a list.
