A curve which may pass through any region of three-dimensional space, as contrasted to a plane curve which must lie in a single plane. Von Staudt (1847) classified space ...

A paracompact space is a T2-space such that every open cover has a locally finite open refinement. Paracompactness is a very common property that topological spaces satisfy. ...

Suppose that X is a vector space over the field of complex or real numbers. Then the set of all linear functionals on X forms a vector space called the algebraic conjugate ...

A vector space with a T2-space topology such that the operations of vector addition and scalar multiplication are continuous. The interesting examples are ...

A complex vector space is a vector space whose field of scalars is the complex numbers. A linear transformation between complex vector spaces is given by a matrix with ...

A Banach space X is called minimal if every infinite-dimensional subspace Y of X contains a subspace Z isomorphic to X. An example of a minimal Banach space is the Banach ...

A Hermitian inner product space is a complex vector space with a Hermitian inner product.

Suppose that X^~,X are arcwise-connected and locally arcwise-connected topological spaces. Then (X^~,p) is said to be a covering space of X if p:X^~->X is a surjective ...

The set of all Schwartz functions is called a Schwartz space and is denoted S(R^n). If C_0^infty(R^n) denotes the set of smooth functions of compact support on R^n, then this ...

Teichmüller's theorem asserts the existence and uniqueness of the extremal quasiconformal map between two compact Riemann surfaces of the same genus modulo an equivalence ...
