Banach-Mazur compactum
The Banach-Mazur metric is a distance on the space of all isomorphic Banach spaces. If are -dimensional Banach spaces, the distance between them is
Then satisfies the triangle inequality, and if and only if and are isometric. The space of isometry classes of -dimensional Banach spaces under this metric is a compact metric space, known as a Banach-Mazur compactum.
