Streszczenie
We prove that each non-separable completely metrizable convex subset of a Fréchet space is homeomorphic to a Hilbert space. This resolves a more than 30 years old problem of infinite-dimensional topology. Combined with the topological classification of separable convex sets due to Klee, Dobrowolski and Toruńczyk, this result implies that each closed convex subset of a Fréchet space is homeomorphic to $[0,1]^n\times [0,1)^m\times \ell _2(\kappa )$ for some cardinals $0\le n\le \omega $, $0\le m\le 1$ and $\kappa \ge 0$.
