Y. Sonntag et C. Zalinescu, SET CONVERGENCES - AN ATTEMPT OF CLASSIFICATION, Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 340(1), 1993, pp. 199-226
We endow families of nonempty closed subsets of a metric space with un
iformities defined by semimetrics. Such structure is completely determ
ined by a class (which is a family of closed sets) and a type (which i
s a semimetric). Two types are sufficient to define (and classify) alm
ost all convergences known till now. These two types offer the possibi
lity of defining other set convergences.
