An Alternative Definition of the Completion of Metric Spaces

arXiv:0810.0805

Abstract

In this article, the author proposes another way to define the completion of a metric space, which is different from the classical one via the dense property, and prove the equivalence between two definitions. This definition is based on considerations from category theory, and can be generalized to arbitrary categories.
