On the density of the hyperspace of a metric space

Comment.Math.Univ.Carolinae 38,2 (1997) 349-360.

Abstract:We calculate the density of the hyperspace of a metric space, endowed with the Hausdorff or the locally finite topology. To this end, we introduce suitable generalizations of the notions of totally bounded and compact metric space.

Keywords: hyperspace, density, metric and metrizable space, Hausdorff metric hypertopology, locally finite hypertopology, GTB space, GK space
