| Dec 29, 2015 at 12:40 | comment | added | Anton Petrunin | @WłodzimierzHolsztyński Check en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuratowski_embedding --- you will see that it is fair to call it "Fréchet embedding". In general it is very wrong to call theorems by name of their authors, it is always better to use some short description as for example "non-squizing theorem". | |
| Dec 29, 2015 at 6:07 | comment | added | Włodzimierz Holsztyński | @AntonPetrunin, wasn't it "Kuratowski-Wojdysławski embedding"? They certainly published a joint paper on the given topic. | |
