Generalization To Topological Vector Spaces
In the special case of two topological vector spaces and, the notion of uniform continuity of a map becomes: for any neighborhood of zero in, there exists a neighborhood of zero in such that implies
For linear transformations, uniform continuity is equivalent to continuity. This fact is frequently used implicitly in functional analysis to extend a linear map off a dense subspace of a Banach space.

Famous quotes containing the word spaces:
“In any case, raw aggression is thought to be the peculiar province of men, as nurturing is the peculiar province of women.... The psychologist Erik Erikson discovered that, while little girls playing with blocks generally create pleasant interior spaces and attractive entrances, little boys are inclined to pile up the blocks as high as they can and then watch them fall down: “the contemplation of ruins,” Erikson observes, “is a masculine specialty.””
