Uniform Continuity - Generalization To Topological Vector Spaces

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:

    Every true man is a cause, a country, and an age; requires infinite spaces and numbers and time fully to accomplish his design;—and posterity seem to follow his steps as a train of clients.
