%0 Book Section %T Some classes of bounded sets in metric spaces publisher UCM %D 2012 %U 978-84-695-4421-1 %@ https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/45365 %X This note deals with some classes of bounded subsets in a metric space. Namely, sets of finite diameter, totally-bounded sets and the so-called Bourbaki-bounded sets. We will see some good and some bad properties of each class, as well as their relationships. A more detailed study about Bourbaki-boundedness is also presented. Finally a new property of completeness in metric spaces is introduced, which we call Bourbaki-completeness. %~
