Then the following are equivalent: \begin{enumerate}[(i)] \item $X$ is Polish, \item $X$ is metrisable, \item $X$ is second countable. \end{enumerate} \end{fact} \begin{proof} (i) $\implies$ (ii) clear (i) $\implies$ (iii) clear (ii) $\implies$ (i) Consider the cover $\{B_{\epsilon}(x) | x \in X\}$ for every $\epsilon \in \Q$ and chose a finite subcover. Then the midpoints of the balls from the cover form a countable dense subset. The metric is complete as $X$ is compact. (For metric spaces: compact $\iff$ seq.~compact $\iff$ complete and totally bounded) (iii) $\implies$ (ii) Use Urysohn's metrisation theorem and the fact that compact Hausdorff spaces are normal \end{proof} Let $X$ be compact Polish (compact metrisable $\implies$ compact Polish) and $Y $ Polish. Let $\cC(X,Y)$ be the set of continuous functions $X \to Y$. Consider the metric $d_u(f,g) \coloneqq \sup_{x \in X} |d(f(x), g(x))|$. Clearly $d_u$ is a metric. \begin{claim} $d_u$ is complete. \end{claim} \begin{subproof} Let $(f_n)$ be a Cauchy sequence in $\cC(X,Y)$. A $Y$ is complete, there exists a pointwise limit $f$. $f_n$ converges uniformly to $f$: \[ d(f_n(x), f(x)) \le \overbrace{d(f_n(x), f_m(x))}^{\mathclap{\text{$(f_n)$ is Cauchy}}} + \underbrace{d(f_m(x), f(x))}_{\mathclap{\text{small for appropriate $m$}}}. \] $f$ is continuous by the uniform convergence theorem. \end{subproof} \begin{claim} There exists a countable dense subset. \end{claim}
