On complete metrizability of the Hausdorff metric topology

General Topology 2017-02-16 v1

Abstract

There exists a completely metrizable bounded metrizable space XX with compatible metrics d,dd,d' so that the hyperspace CL(X)CL(X) of nonempty closed subsets of XX endowed with the Hausdorff metric HdH_d, HdH_{d'}, resp. is α\alpha-favorable, β\beta-favorable, resp. in the strong Choquet game. In particular, there exists a completely metrizable bounded metric space (X,d)(X,d) such that (CL(X),Hd)(CL(X),H_d) is not completely metrizable.
