Between uniform spaces
Suppose and are uniform spaces (in other words, and are sets and and are uniform structures on and respectively). A function is termed a uniformly continuous map if the following holds: For any (i.e., for every entourage of ) there exists a such that .
Between metric spaces
Suppose and are metric spaces (in other words, and are sets and and are metrics on and respectively). A function is termed a uniformly continuous map if the following holds:
