Weakly complete semimetrizable spaces and complete metrizability

In [4], J. Ceder proved that every paracompact strongly complete semimetrizable space is completely metrizable. This result cannot be generalized to paracompact weakly complete semimetrizable spaces as a known example of L. F. McAuley shows (see [11, Theorem 3.2]). It then arises, in a natural way, the question of obtaining conditions for the complete metrizability of a paracompact weakly complete semimetrizable space. In this note we give an answer to this question. We show that every regular theta, weakly complete asymmetrizable space is a complete Aronszajn space and deduce, among other results, that every paracompact theta, weakly complete semimetrizable space is completely metrizable. Some examples related to the obtained results are also given.
