Separability of a metric space and of a real normed space is expressed by predicative formulas at any variable positions, and the separable metrics on a fixed set form a class.
In the setting of Routine Facts, Continued: Typed Arithmetic, Maps and Predicativity, let be a metatheoretic number, let be distinct set variables, and let , not necessarily distinct. A condition on is predicative if it is expressed by a predicative formula, with in place of the set variables listed in Conditions Expressed by a Predicative Formula, and Guards (i) and no displayed variables; the set of natural numbers, , , , , and are parameters. Below, in (i), and , and is the standing hypothesis of Separable Metric Space and Separable Real Normed Space: " is a map from the Cartesian product to , and is a metric space"; in (ii), , the addition of is , its scalar multiplication is and , and , the hypothesis of Separable Metric Space and Separable Real Normed Space (ii), is: ", with addition and scalar multiplication , is a real vector space, is a function from to , and is a real normed space".
Separable metric spaces. The condition ", and is separable" on is predicative.
Separable real normed spaces. The condition ", and is separable" on is predicative.
The class of separable metrics. For every set there is a class such that, for every class , if and only if is a map from to that is a metric on and is separable.
