  • The Tychonoff product theorem is one of the most fundamental theorems in general topology. As is well-known, the proof of the Tychonoff product theorem relies on the axiom of choice. The converse was also conjectured by S. Kakutani and Kelley [1] then resolved this conjecture in his historical short note on 1950. However, the original proof due to Kelley has a flaw. According to this observation, we provide a correction of the proof in this paper.
