Metrizable uniform spaces

In this file we prove that a uniform space with countably generated uniformity filter is pseudometrizable: there exists a PseudoMetricSpace structure that generates the same uniformity. The proof follows [Sergey Melikhov, Metrizable uniform spaces][melikhov2011].

Main definitions

• PseudoMetricSpace.ofPreNNDist: given a function d : X → X → ℝ≥0 such that d x x = 0 and d x y = d y x for all x y : X, constructs the maximal pseudo metric space structure such that NNDist x y ≤ d x y for all x y : X.

• UniformSpace.pseudoMetricSpace: given a uniform space X with countably generated 𝓤 X, constructs a PseudoMetricSpace X instance that is compatible with the uniform space structure.

• UniformSpace.metricSpace: given a T₀ uniform space X with countably generated 𝓤 X, constructs a MetricSpace X instance that is compatible with the uniform space structure.

Main statements

• UniformSpace.metrizable_uniformity: if X is a uniform space with countably generated 𝓤 X, then there exists a PseudoMetricSpace structure that is compatible with this UniformSpace structure. Use UniformSpace.pseudoMetricSpace or UniformSpace.metricSpace instead.

• UniformSpace.pseudoMetrizableSpace: a uniform space with countably generated 𝓤 X is pseudo metrizable.

• UniformSpace.metrizableSpace: a T₀ uniform space with countably generated 𝓤 X is metrizable. This is not an instance to avoid loops.

Consider a function d : X → X → ℝ≥0 such that d x x = 0 and d x y = d y x for all x, y. Let dist be the largest pseudometric distance such that dist x y ≤ d x y, see PseudoMetricSpace.ofPreNNDist. Suppose that d satisfies the following triangle-like inequality: d x₁ x₄ ≤ 2 * max (d x₁ x₂, d x₂ x₃, d x₃ x₄). Then d x y ≤ 2 * dist x y for all x, y.
