		For the metrizability of the space of a topological group it is necessary and sufficient that the group satisfies the first axiom of countability; moreover, the space is then metrizable by an invariant metric (for example, with respect to left multiplication).
		An important topological property of a space metrizable by a complete metric is the Baire property: The intersection of any countable family of everywhere-dense open sets is everywhere dense.
		Metrizability criterion 1) is due to R.H. Bing [a1].

		Initially, uniform spaces were used as tools for the study of the topologies (generated by them) (similar to the way a metric on a metrizable space was often used for the study of the topological properties of the space).

	Metrization theorem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In topology and related areas of mathematics, a metrizable space is a topological space that is homeomorphic to a metric space.
		Metrization theorems are theorems that give sufficient conditions for a topological space to be metrizable.
		An example of a space that is not metrizable is the real line with the lower limit topology.

	Metrizable Topology -- from Wolfram MathWorld
		Special metrizability criteria are known for Hausdorff spaces.

		In particular, he is interested in stratifiable spaces and other spaces which have some but not all properties of metrizable spaces.
		The most common objects in topology, such as manifolds, polyhedra, and Euclidean spaces, are metrizable spaces, which means that one can describe the topology by a (real-valued) distance between points, and say that a sequence of points converges to a limit if and only if the distance decreases to zero.
		He showed that a number of basic structure theorems about metrizable spaces, for example that the quotient of a first-countable metrizable space is metrizable, holds for stratifiable spaces also.

		In the case of metrizable spaces it is equivalent to Lebesgue's definition.
		The foundations of dimension theory were laid in the first half of the twenties of the 20th century in papers of Urysohn and Menger.
		In the later thirties, the dimension theory of metrizable spaces with a countable base was constructed, and by the start of the sixties the dimension theory of arbitrary metrizable spaces was finished.

		Recall that (1) (V=L) implies that normal locally compact Moore spaces are metrizable and (2) (MA) implies that normal, separable, locally compact Moore spaces have normal squares.
		It is also shown that it is consistent with ZFC and GCH that there exists a normal Moore space with a nonnormal square.
		M(X) is metrizable) implies that X is a \sigma -discrete Moore space with a \sigma -disjoint base.

		If a metrizable space X is a dense in a metrizable space Y, then Y is called a metric extension of X. If T1 and T2 are metric extensions of X and there is a continuous map of T2 into T1 that keeping X pointwise fixed, we write T1<=T2.
		The poset (E(X), <=) of one-point metric extensions of a locally compact metrizable space X is studied.

		Metrizability in a topological space provides a great deal of structure: a metric space is, for example, paracompact.
		But if one does not require metrizability, and instead asks to what extent normality (assuming all spaces are Hausdorff) achieves the structure of paracompactness, one discovers a very complex world of counterexamples whose product with the closed unit interval is not normal.
		It is undecidable in Zermel-Frankel set theory whether there is a perfectly normal nonmetrizable manifold, and the question of whether every normal Moore space is metrizable has a more complex, unsatisfactory answer.

		This question (and also one asking if there is at least a Tychonoff connectification) was stated in a paper of Alas, Tkachuk, Tkacenko, and Wilson, who proved that the answer is positive for separable metric spaces.
		Also, Porter and Woods have shown that every metrizable space with no compact open subsets has a Hausdorff connectification, and Neumann-Lara and Wilson have shown that every strongly 0-dimensional metrizable space has a Tychonoff (orderable) connectification.
		Here we show that a metrizable space X has a metrizable connectification if (and only if) X can be embedded in a metrizable space Y such that every clopen subset of X has a limit point in Y.

		Also, even when spaces are metrizable, it can happen that a metric approach is highly confusing.
		The usual topology of probability distributions on a separable metric space is metrizable, but using metric concepts makes it much harder to understand.
		In many cases of metric spaces, the use of the metric itself confuses the much simpler topological concepts.

	Metrizable Shape And Strong Shape Equivalences (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-25)
		In this paper we construct a functor $\Phi : \pT \to \pA$ which extends Marde\v si\' c correspondence that assigns to every metrizable space its canonical \A-resolution.
		Such a functor allows one to define the strong shape category of prospaces and, moreover, to define a class of spaces, called strongly fibered, that play for strong shape equivalences the role that \A-spaces play for ordinary shape equivalences.
		In the last section we characterize SSDR-promaps, as defined by Dydak and Nowak, in terms of the strong homotopy extension property considered by the author.

		For a collection A of metrizable spaces, let P(A) denote the category formed by all finite products of members of A and all their continuous maps.
		For collections A and B indexed by the same set, the categories P(A) and P(B) are compared.

		Suppose that K is a simplicial complex, K is given the weak topology, and a metrizable space X is the limit of an inverse sequence of metrizable spaces X
		This latter property means that for each closed subset A of X and map f:A --> K, there exists a map F:X --> K which is an extension of f.
		As a corollary to this we get the result of Nagami that the limit of an inverse sequence of metrizable spaces each having dimension <= n has dimension <= n.

		"Metrizable requires, in addition to Hausdorf, separability and existance of at least one countable locally finite cover.
		Those three are independent requirements; if you could do without any one of them you would have a much stronger theorem, and be famous among topologists (nobody else would notice or care)." attributed to a "DickT" on
