Nearest point property and uniformly continuous image












0












$begingroup$


Show that a uniformly continuous image of a metric space that has the nearest point property need not have that property.



I have some trouble understanding the problem.
With the term ''uniformly continuous image'' does it mean that $f(X)=Y$ where $f$ is uniformly continuous ?

    As I understand this you need to find a metric space $X$ which satisfies the nearest point property and a uniformly continuous function $f$ such that $f(X)$ does not satisfy the nearest point property.

I did not know this nearest point property, but I found it in Google books and there the author gives the following equivalent formulations:




  • Every infinite bounded subset of $X$ has an accumulation point in $X$.

  • Every bounded sequence has a subsequence that converges in $X$.


  • $X$ is complete and every bounded subset is totally bounded.


Now consider $X = mathbb{N}$ in the usual metric, which has the nearest point property. And note that $f(n) = frac{1}{n}$ is uniformly continuous onto a subspace of $mathbb{R}$ that does not have that property.

    How about $(X,d_0)$ where $|X|=infty$? If we take $f:Xrightarrow X$ then $f$ is uniformly continuous but it does not have the nearest point property when $X$ is infinite
