+ | |||
+ | ====Definition==== | ||
+ | A \emph{metric space} is a structure $\mathbf{X}=\langle X,d\rangle$, where $d:X\times X\to [0,infty)$ is a \emph{distance metric}, i.e., | ||
+ | |||
+ | points zero distance apart are identical: $d(x,y)=0\iff x=y$ | ||
+ | |||
+ | $d$ is \emph{symmetric}: $d(x,y)=d(y,x)$ | ||
+ | |||
+ | the \emph{triangle inequality} holds: $d(x,z)\le d(x,y)+d(y,z)$ | ||
+ | |||

+ | It is not unusual to give several (equivalent) definitions. Ideally, one of the definitions would give an irredundant axiomatization that does not refer to other classes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Morphisms== | ||
+ | Let $\mathbf{X}$ and $\mathbf{Y}$ be metric spaces. A morphism from $\mathbf{X}$ to $\mathbf{Y}$ is a function $h:X\rightarrow Y$ that is continuous in | ||
+ | the topology induced by the metric: $\forall z\in X\ \forall\epsilon>0\ \exists\delta>0\ \forall x\in X(0<d(x,z)<\delta\Longrightarrow d(h(x),h(z))<\epsilon$ | ||
