Abstract

A general selection theorem for a Vietoris-like hyperspace topology is obtained and, as a result, several known selection theorems for both `topology'- and `metric'-generated hyperspace topologies are improved from a common point of view. Applications are presented in characterizing classes of metrizable spaces by continuous selections for their hyperspaces.
