Let K be the collection of non-empty closed bounded subsets of Rn.
(a) Show that, if A,B∈K and we write
A+B={a+b:a∈A,b∈B}
then A+B∈K.
(b) Show that, if Kn∈K, and
K1⊇K2⊇K3⊇⋯
then K:=⋂n=1∞Kn∈K.
(c) Assuming the result that
ρ(A,B)=a∈Asupb∈Binf∣a−b∣+b∈Bsupa∈Ainf∣a−b∣
defines a metric on K (the Hausdorff metric), show that if Kn and K are as in part (b), then ρ(Kn,K)→0 as n→∞.
