Banach spaces are named after the Polish mathematician Stefan Banach, who introduced them in 1920–1922 along with Hans Hahn and Eduard Helly.

Famous quotes containing the word space:
“... the movie womans world is designed to remind us that a woman may live in a mansion, an apartment, or a yurt, but its all the same thing because what she really lives in is the body of a woman, and that body is allowed to occupy space only according to the dictates of polite society.”
—Jeanine Basinger (b. 1936)
