Closed uniformly tight compactness criterion
ID: closed-uniformly-tight-compactness-criterion
A weakly closed uniformly tight family of Borel probability measures on a Polish space is weakly compact. Embed the underlying space into a compact metric closure, take subsequential pushforward limits, and use the closed-set Portmanteau theorem on the common tightness compact sets. The limit retains full mass in the original space; inverse continuity of the probability pushforward embedding theorem then returns the weak limit.
