Polishness of the Wijsman topology revisited
by
László Zsilinszky
University of South Carolina

Let X be a completely metrizable space. Then the space of nonempty closed subsets of X endowed with the Wijsman topology is \alpha-favorable in the strong Choquet game. As a consequence, a short proof of the Beer-Costantini Theorem on Polishness of the Wijsman topology is given.
