+## Countability and separability
+
+### Metrizable spaces
+
+Let $\mathbb{R}^\omega$ be the set of all countable sequences of real numbers.
+
+where the basis is defined
+
+$$
+\mathcal{B}=\{\prod_{i=1}^\infty (a_i,b_i)\text{for all except for finitely many}(a_i,b_i)=\mathbb{R}\}
+$$
+
+#### Lemma $\mathbb{R}^\omega$ is metrizable
+
+Consider the metric define on $\mathbb{R}^\omega$ by $D(\overline{x},\overline{y})=\sup\{\frac{\overline{d}(x_i,y_i)}{i}\}$
+
+where $\overline{x}=(x_1,x_2,x_3,\cdots)$ and $\overline{y}=(y_1,y_2,y_3,\cdots)$, $\overline{d}=\min\{|x_i-y_i|,1\}$.
+
+<details>
+<summary>Sketch of proof</summary>
+
+1. $D$ is a metric. exercise
+
+2. $\forall \overline{x}\in \mathbb{R}^\omega$, $\forall \epsilon >0$, $\exists$ basis open set in product topology $U\subseteq B_D(\overline{x},\epsilon)$ containing $\overline{x}$.
+
+Choose $N\geq \frac{1}{\epsilon}$, then $\forall n\geq N,\frac{\overline{d}(x_n,y_n)}{n}<\frac{1}{N}<\epsilon$

+
+We will use the topological space above to prove the following theorem.
+
+#### Theorem for metrizable spaces
+
+If $X$ is a regular and second countable topological space, then $X$ is metrizable.
+
+<details>
+
+<summary>Proof</summary>
+
+We will show that there exists embedding $F:X\to \mathbb{R}^\omega$ such that $F$ is continuous, injective and if $Z=F(X)$, $F:X\to Z$ is a open map.
+
+Recall that [regular and second countable spaces are normal](./Math4201_L36.md/#theorem-for-constructing-normal-spaces)
+
+1. Since $X$ is regular, then 1 point sets in $X$ are closed.
+2. $X$ is regular if and only if $\forall x\in U\subseteq X$, $U$ is open in $X$. There exists $V$ open in $X$ such that $x\in V\subseteq\overline{V}\subseteq U$.
+
+Let $\{B_n\}$ be a countable basis for $X$ (by second countability).
+
+Pass to $(n,m)$ such that $\overline{B_n}\subseteq B_m$.
+
+By [Urysohn lemma](./Math4201_L37.md/#urysohn-lemma), there exists continuous function $g_{m,n}: X\to [0,1]$ such that $g_{m,n}(\overline{B_n})=\{1\}$ and $g_{m,n}(B_m)=\{0\}$.
+
+Therefore, we have $\{g_{m,n}\}$ is a countable set of functions, where $\overline{B_n}\subseteq B_m$.
+
+We claim that $\forall x_0\in U$ such that $U$ is open in $X$, there exists $k\in \mathbb{N}$ such that $f_k(\{x_0\})>0$ and $f_k(X-U)=0$.
+
+Definition of basis implies that $\exists x_0\in B_m\subseteq U$
+
+Note that since $X$ is regular, there exists $x_0\in B_n\subseteq \overline{B_n}\subseteq B_m$.
+
+Choose $f_k=g_{m,n}$, then $f_k(\overline{B_n})=\{1\}$ and $f_k(B_n)=\{0\}$. So $f_k(x_0)=1$ since $x_0\in \overline{B_n}$.
+
+So $F$ is **continuous** since each of the $f_k$ is continuous.
+
+$F$ is **injective** since $x\neq y$ implies that there exists $k$, $f_k=g_{m,n}$ where $x\in \overline{B_n}\subseteq B_m$ such that $f_k(x)\neq f_k(y)$.
+
+If $F(U)$ is open for all $U\subseteq X$, $U$ is open in $X$, then $F:X\to Z$ is homeomorphism.
+
+We want to show that $\forall z_0\in F(U)$, there exists neighborhood $W$ of $z_0$, $z_0\in W\subseteq F(U)$.
+
+We know that $\exists x_0\in F(x_0)$ such that $F(x_0)=z_0$.
+
+We choose $N$ such that $f_N(\{x_0\})>0$ and $f_N(X-U)=0$, ($V\cap Z\subseteq F(U)$).
+
+Let $V=\pi_N^{-1}((0,\infty))$. By construction, $V$ is open in $\mathbb{R}^\omega$. and $V\cap Z$ is open in $Z$ containing $z_0$.
