Abstract

It is shown that the hyperspace C l d H ( X ) (resp. B d d H ( X ) ) of non-empty closed (resp. closed and bounded) subsets of a metric space (X,d) is homeomorphic to ℓ₂ if and only if the completion X̅ of X is connected and locally connected, X is topologically complete and nowhere locally compact, and each subset (resp. each bounded subset) of X is totally bounded.
