Abstract
We describe the order type of range sets of compact ultrametrics and show that an ultrametrizable infinite topological space is compact iff the range sets are order isomorphic for any two ultrametrics compatible with the topology . It is also shown that an ultrametrizable topology is separable iff every compatible with this topology ultrametric has at most countable range set.
