\begin{theorem}[Banach-Alaoglu]
\label{theorem:alaoglu}
Let $E$ be a locally convex space over $K \in \RC$ and $\alg \subset E^*$ be equicontinuous, then $\alg$ is precompact with respect to $\sigma(E^*, E)$.
Let $E$ be a locally convex space over $K \in \RC$ and $\alg \subset E^*$ be equicontinuous, then $\alg$ is relatively compact with respect to $\sigma(E^*, E)$.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
For each $x \in E$, $\alg(x) = \bracsn{\dpn{x, \phi}{E}|\phi \in \alg}$ is precompact by \autoref{proposition:equicontinuous-bounded}. By the \hyperref[Arzelà-Ascoli Theorem]{theorem:arzela-ascoli},
For each $x \in E$, $\alg(x) = \bracsn{\dpn{x, \phi}{E}|\phi \in \alg}$ is relatively compact by \autoref{proposition:equicontinuous-bounded}. By the \hyperref[Arzelà-Ascoli Theorem]{theorem:arzela-ascoli},
\begin{enumerate}
\item[(C2)] The $\sigma(E^*, E)$-closure of $\alg$ in $\prod_{x \in E}K$ is equicontinuous.
\item[(C3)] The $\sigma(E^*, E)$-closure of $\alg$ in $\prod_{x \in E}K$ is compact.
