Abstract

The classes of the Lp,∞- and Lp-metrics play an important role to develop a probability theory in fuzzy sample spaces. All of these metrics are known to be separable, but not complete. The classes are closely related as for each Lp,∞-metric there exists some Lp-metric which induces the same topology. This paper deals with the completion of the Lp,∞- and Lp-metrics. We can also show that the relationship between the classes of Lp,∞- and Lp-metrics still holds for the obtained respective classes of their completions.
