Weak topology of a CW complex

The weak topology of a CW complex is determined by its closed cells: a subset is closed if and only if its inverse image under every characteristic map from a closed cell is closed. A map out of the complex is continuous when its restrictions along those characteristic maps are continuous. This is distinct from the weak topology of a vector space. Taking the product with a locally finite CW complex, such as a closed interval with its finite cell structure, retains the corresponding CW weak topology.
