Can a Cauchy sequence converge for one metric while not converging for another? Is there an easy example of one and the same space $X$ with two different metrics $d$ and $e$ such that one and the same sequence $\{x_n\}$ is a Cauchy sequence for both metrics, but converges only for one of them? 
 A: Having "the same X" is somewhat meaningless, since there's no shared structure other than cardinality. Given any other set Y with metric $d_Y$ and a injective map $\phi: X \rightarrow Y$, you can define $e(x_1,x_2) = d_Y(\phi(x_1),\phi(x_2))$. So all you have to do is find two spaces with the same cardinality where one has a convergent Cauchy sequence and the other has a non-convergent one. Or find a convergent Cauchy sequence and a non-convergent Cauchy sequence in the same space, then map one sequence to the other.
A: Let $X=[0,\infty)$, let $d(x,y)=\lvert x-y\rvert$ and let$$e(x,y)=\begin{cases}\lvert x-y\rvert&\text{ if }x,y\neq0\\\lvert x+1\rvert&\text{ if }x\neq0\text{ and }y=0\\\lvert y+1\rvert&\text{ if }x=0\text{ and }y\neq0\\0&\text{ if }x,y=0.\end{cases}$$Then the sequence $\left(\frac1n\right)_{n\in\mathbb N}$ is a Cauchy sequence with respect to both metrics, but it converges only in $(X,d)$.
A: You can always have some artificial example where you just "move the limit elsewhere". For example, let $X=\mathbb{R_{\ge 0}}$, $d_1$ be the Euclidean metric and $d_2(x, y)=|\hat{x}-\hat{y}|$, where $ \hat{x}=-1$ if $x=0$ and $ \hat{x}=x$ otherwise. Then the sequence $x_n=\frac 1n$ converges in $(X, d_1)$ but not in $(X, d_2)$.
A: Depending on what you mean, the answer is "no". In particular, if by "two metrics on the one space" you mean two metrics on the same set that induce the same topology, then the answer is no because convergence is a topological property.
However the other answers are correct if the induced topologies are allowed to be different.
