comment Urysohn Metrization Theorem: show that $F$ is continuous.
With $f(y) = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{f_n(y)}{n}$, you're referring to some Urysohn function $f:X\rightarrow [0,1]$? Or the embedding $F:X\rightarrow H$? I am guessing the latter, but then what do you mean with the sum of all Urysohn functions $\frac{f_n}{n}$? Because, $F(y) = \left( f_1(y), \frac{f_2(y)}{2}, \frac{f_3(y)}{3}, \dots\right)$? Or am I seeing thing the other way around..

comment What are relative open sets?
@DanielRobert-Nicoud - D'oh! I meant to prove that $F$ is open. Indeed.. But then, it is the same to find $F(W)$ open as to find $F(W)$ as the union of relatively open sets?

comment What are relative open sets?
@DanielRobert-Nicoud - In Urysohn's Metrization Theorem we have some space X and construct a function $F: X \rightarrow H$, where $H$ is the hilbert cube. The idea is then to show that $F$ is an embedding by proving $F$ to be one-to-one, continuous and open. When proving continuity let $W$ be open in $X$, then they show that $F(W)$ is the union of relatively open sets. So normally when proving continuity one would need to find an open $F(W)$, but here they suffice with the union of relatively open sets.

comment What are relative open sets?
@Daniel Robert-Nicoud - Suppose I want to prove something, e.g. continuity, such that I would need to find some open set $U$. Would it be sufficient to show that there exists a relatively open set?

So it is the same as to say that $F$ is a continuous bijection? An open mapping corresponds with an continuous inverse function if I'm not wrong.

@julien. Aha, so a Hilbert space need not to be infinite? How can i get more info on $\ell^{2}(\mathbb{R})$? What is this space called?
