[5] Problem 2. (cf. P17.6) Give an example of a nonempty set X and equivalent distance functions d, d' of X such that (X, d) is totally bounded, but (X, d') is not. Problem 4. Let X be the set of all binary sequences and let d be the weighted Hamming distance. (1) Prove that X is complete. (2) Prove that X is totally bounded.

Explanation & Answer

The solutions are ready. The first is rather long, might be some detail is omitted. Feel free to ask for more explanations.

2. Example of two equivalent distances 𝑑, 𝑑 β€² on the same set such that (𝑋, 𝑑) is totally bounded while (𝑋, 𝑑′ ) is not.
The idea is that convergence is a topological property and it is preserved under a homeomorphism, while boundedness is not in (general).

Let 𝑋 = ℝ and 𝑑′ be the usual distance. It is obvious that (𝑋, 𝑑 β€² ) is not totally bounded (its length is infinite). Let 𝑑 be another, β€œshrunk” metric:
πœ‹ πœ‹

𝑑(π‘₯, 𝑦) = |arctan π‘₯ βˆ’ arctan 𝑦|. The map arctan π‘₯ actually is a homeomorphism from ℝ with the usual metric to (βˆ’ 2 , 2 ) with the usual metric.
This function obviously positive except for π‘₯ = 𝑦 and symmetric. Prove the triangle...
