A sequence converges uniformly to if, for every , there is such that
for every and every . A map is uniformly continuous if, for every , there is such that
for all .
If , choose a ball outside which . On the closed ball, continuity gives boundedness, so is bounded everywhere.
Now let be Cauchy in the uniform metric. For each , is Cauchy in ; let its limit be . Passing to the pointwise limit in the uniform Cauchy estimate shows that uniformly. Hence is continuous. Given , choose with , and then choose so that for . It follows that also vanishes at infinity. Thus is complete, as in completeness of continuous functions vanishing at infinity.
Every is uniformly continuous. Given , choose so that outside the ball of radius . On the compact ball of radius , is uniformly continuous; choose the corresponding . If two points at distance below are not both in that ball, then both lie outside the ball of radius , and their function values differ by less than .
For the final sequence, continuity of at zero gives, for each fixed ,
Thus pointwise convergence is compulsory. Uniform convergence need not hold: with ,
which is unbounded as a function of for every fixed .
Under the additional bound , however,
for , and the difference is zero at . Hence convergence is uniform, by the uniform square-root perturbation under linear growth estimate. The pointwise answer remains yes.
Suppose the additive group of the integral domain is isomorphic to . Every ideal is then an additive subgroup of a finitely generated free abelian group, so it has finitely many additive generators . These also generate as an -ideal: integer coefficients are coefficients from the canonical copy of in . Thus every ideal is finitely generated, proving that is Noetherian by noetherianity from finite additive rank.
For an example that fails (i)--(iv), take
It is an integral domain and has additive group . The ideal
has index two: modulo , one has and , and the resulting quotient is . If , multiplication by its generator would have determinant and absolute index
which has no integer solution. Hence is not principal, as detailed in nonprincipal ideal in the integers adjoined a square root of minus five. Condition (i), and therefore all four equivalent conditions, fails.
The minimum-cost flow problem chooses, for each directed edge , a flow and solves
subject to
Feasibility requires .
Set . Then
and its balance vector is
The objective becomes plus the constant . Translation by is a bijection between feasible flows and preserves their ordering by cost, so the transformed zero-lower-bound problem is equivalent.
For a regular constraint , an interior constrained extremum satisfies
together with the constraint; boundary cases must also be checked.
Here maximize subject to . The Lagrange multiplier equations give
At a positive maximizer these imply . Boundary points have zero volume, so the maximum is
A topological surface is a Hausdorff, second-countable space in which every point has a neighbourhood homeomorphic to an open subset of .
The antipodal action on is free. The surface quotient by a free finite action applies: Around each point choose a small open disc disjoint from its antipodal image; the quotient map restricts to a homeomorphism from that disc onto an open neighbourhood in the quotient. Compactness gives Hausdorffness and second countability descends from the sphere. Thus the quotient is the real projective plane, in particular a topological surface.
For the second quotient write a point away from the poles as
The map
in these cylindrical coordinates extends continuously over the poles and identifies exactly with . It therefore induces a continuous bijection . The domain is compact and the sphere Hausdorff, so this bijection is a homeomorphism.
