Definition
Suppose that we have a normed space (X, ||ยท||), an arbitrary member of X, and an arbitrary sequence in the space. We say that X has Schur's property if converging weakly to implies that . In other words, the weak and strong topologies share the same convergent sequences. Note however that weak and strong topologies are always distinct in infinite-dimensional space.

Famous quotes containing the word definition:
“One definition of man is “an intelligence served by organs.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I’m beginning to think that the proper definition of “Man” is “an animal that writes letters.””

“The definition of good prose is proper words in their proper places; of good verse, the most proper words in their proper places. The propriety is in either case relative. The words in prose ought to express the intended meaning, and no more; if they attract attention to themselves, it is, in general, a fault.”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
