Totally Bounded Metric Spaces
- is a type of mathematical space
- is a type of metric space that is totally bounded
- a metric space (𝑋,𝑑) is totally bounded if and only if for every real number 𝜀>0, there exists a FINITE collection of open balls of radius 𝜀 whose centers lie in 𝑋 and whose union contains 𝑋
- equivalently, a metric space (𝑋,𝑑) is totally bounded if and only if for every real number 𝜀>0, there exists a FINITE cover such that the radius of each element of the cover is at most 𝜀
- any subset of a totally bounded metric space is a bounded set
- every totally bounded metric space is also a bounded metric space
