Uniform space — In the mathematical field of topology, a uniform space is a set with a uniform structure. Uniform spaces are topological spaces with additional structure which is used to define uniform properties such as completeness, uniform continuity and… … Wikipedia
Direct sum of modules — For the broader use of the term in mathematics, see Direct sum. In abstract algebra, the direct sum is a construction which combines several modules into a new, larger module. The result of the direct summation of modules is the smallest general… … Wikipedia
