Abstract

The hyperspace of the nontrivial convergent sequences of a topological space Hausdorff $X$ is denoted by $\mathcal{S}_c(X)$. This hyperspace is endowed with the Vietoris topology. In this paper, we show that the the hyperspace $\mathcal{S}_c(X)$ is metrizable if and only if the ground space $X$ possesses the same property.
