In general topology and analysis, a Cauchy space is a generalization of metric spaces and uniform spaces for which the notion of Cauchy convergence still makes sense. Cauchy spaces were introduced by H. H. Keller in 1968, as an axiomatic tool derived from the idea of a Cauchy filter, in order to study completeness in topological spaces. The category of Cauchy spaces and ''Cauchy continuous maps'' is cartesian closed, and contains the category of proximity spaces. A Cauchy space is a set ''X'' and a collection ''C'' of proper filters in the power set ''P''(''X'') such that # for each ''x'' in ''X'', the ultrafilter at ''x'', ''U''(''x''), is in ''C''. # if ''F'' is in ''C'', and ''F'' is a subset of ''G'', then ''G'' is in ''C''. # if ''F'' and ''G'' are in ''C'' and each member of ''F'' intersects each member of ''G'', then ''F'' ∩ ''G'' is in ''C''. An element of ''C'' is called a Cauchy filter, and a map ''f'' between Cauchy spaces (''X'',''C'') and (''Y'',''D'') is Cauchy continuous if ''f''(''C'')⊆''D''; that is, each the image of each Cauchy filter in ''X'' is Cauchy in ''Y''. == Properties and definitions == Any Cauchy space is also a convergence space, where a filter ''F'' converges to ''x'' if ''F''∩''U''(''x'') is Cauchy. In particular, a Cauchy space carries a natural topology. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cauchy space」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
