Definition
A function f between two uniform spaces X and Y is called a uniform isomorphism if it satisfies the following properties
f is a bijection
f is uniformly continuous
- the inverse function f-1 is uniformly continuous
If a uniform isomorphism exists between two uniform spaces they are called uniformly isomorphic or uniformly equivalent.
Examples
The uniform structures induced by equivalent norms on a vector space are uniformly isomorphic.
