Hausdorff hyperspaces of RmR^m and their dense subspaces

preprint2007arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let CLBH(X)CLB_H(X) denote the hyperspace of closed bounded subsets of a metric space XX, endowed with the Hausdorff metric topology. We prove, among others, that natural dense subspaces of CLBH(Rm)CLB_H(R^m) of all nowhere dense closed sets, of all perfect sets, of all Cantor sets and of all Lebesgue measure zero sets are homeomorphic to the Hilbert space ℓ2\ell_2. Moreover, we investigate the hyperspace CLH(R)CL_H(R) of all nonempty closed subsets of the real line RR with the Hausdorff (infinite-valued) metric. We show that a nonseparable component of CLH(R)CL_H(R) is homeomorphic to the Hilbert space ℓ2(2ℵ0)\ell_2(2^{\aleph_0}) as long as it does not contain any of the sets R,[0,∞),(−∞,0]R, [0,\infty), (-\infty,0].
