Description: A ball in the product metric for finite index set is the Cartesian product of balls in all coordinates. For infinite index set this is no longer true; instead the correct statement is that a *closed ball* is the product of closed balls in each coordinate (where closed ball means a set of the form in blcld ) - for a counterexample the point p in RR ^ NN whose n -th coordinate is 1 - 1 / n is in X_ n e. NN ball ( 0 , 1 ) but is not in the 1 -ball of the product (since d ( 0 , p ) = 1 ).
The last assumption, 0 < A , is needed only in the case I = (/) , when the right side evaluates to { (/) } and the left evaluates to (/) if A <_ 0 and { (/) } if 0 < A . (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 28-Aug-2015)
