Identical Cauchy sequences and continuity.












1












$begingroup$


Find a set $X$ and two metrics $d$ and $m$ on $X$ such that the Cauchy sequences of $(X,d)$ and $(X,m)$ are identical and the identity map from $(X,d)$ to $(X,m)$ is continuous but not uniformly continuous.



My attempt: if we take $X=mathbb{R}$ and the identity map $f:mathbb{R} rightarrow mathbb{R}$ and the metrics are equivalent, then we get our result.(?)



A question: Uniform continuity means that the cauchy sequences of the first metric space maps to the second. How can it not be uniformly continuous?

    Uniform continuity implies that the function maps Cauchy to Cauchy. But is not equivalent.

Let $X=mathbb R$, $d(x,y)=|x-y|$ and $m(x,y)=|x^{2}-y^{2}|+|x-y|$. Use the fact that d-Cauchy sequences are bounded to show that Cauchy sequences under $d$ and $m$ are the same. If the identity map from $(X,d)$ to $(X.m)$ is uniformly continuous then, given $epsilon >0$ there exists $delta >0$ such that $|x^{2}-y^{2}|+|x-y| <epsilon$ whenever $|x-y| < delta$ $,,,$ (1). But this would imply that $x to x^{2}$ is uniformly continuous function (when both domain and range are given the metric $d$) which you know is false. [ You can take $x=n,y=n+frac 1 n$ with large $n$ to get a contradiction to (1)].

    Take $X=mathbb R$, let $d$ be the usual distance and define$$m(x,y)=bigllvert x^3-y^3bigrrvert.$$Then $(X,d)$ and $(X,m)$ have the same Cauchy sequences, but $operatorname{Id}colon(X,d)longrightarrow(X,m)$ is not uniformly continuous (but it is continuous).

      WLOG assume $|x| le |y|$, $|x^3-y^3|=|x-y||x^2+xy+y^2| le d(x,y)3|y|^2 le 3Md(x,y)$. Is this why these different metrics have the same Cauchy sequences ?
