Content:
Let $X$ be any set, and let $(Y,d)$ be a metric space.
A sequence $f_1,f_2,\dots$ of functions mapping $X$ to $Y$ is said to be
\emph{uniformly convergent} to another function $f$ if, for each $\varepsilon>0$, there exists $N$ such that, for all $x$ and all $n>N$, we have $d(f_n(x),f(x))<\varepsilon$.
This is denoted by $f_n\xrightarrow[]{u} f$, or $``f_n\rightarrow f$ uniformly$"$ or, less frequently, by $f_n\rightrightarrows f$. |
