Embeddings of pseudo metric spaces into seminormed Spaces
There is a theorem stating that every metric space embeds isometrically into $\ell _{\infty}$.
My question: is there a generalized result for pseudo metric spaces embedding isometrically into semi-...

Bilipschitz embedding of the unit ball of $c_0$ into $\ell_1$
This is a follow-up to this question of mine.
It is well-known that the Banach space $\ell_1$ does not contain any isomorphic copies of $c_0$. One can even go further and show that $\ell_1$ does not ...

Isometric embeddings of $c_0$ into metric spaces
Are there any nice and useful criteria or theorems which assert when a given metric space $M$ contains an isometric (not necessarily linear) copy of the Banach space $c_0$ or its unit ball $B_{c_0}$? (...

In infinite dimensions, is it possible that convergence of distances to a sequence always implies convergence of that sequence?
This is a cross-posted on MSE here.
Let $(X,d)$ be a metric space. Say that $x_n\in X$ is a P-sequence if $\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}d(x_n,y)$ converges for every $y\in X.$ Say that $(X,d)$ is P-...

Is the space of Radon measures a Polish space or at least separable?
Background: I work on a SPDE problem where in order to apply Prokhorov's theorem I need that some measure space is Polish space. And additionaly it would be good if that space is Banach space. Earlier ...
