Uniform isomorphism

A function ${\displaystyle f}$ between two uniform spaces ${\displaystyle X}$ and ${\displaystyle Y}$ is called a uniform isomorphism if it satisfies the following properties

• ${\displaystyle f}$ is a bijection
• ${\displaystyle f}$ is uniformly continuous
• the inverse function ${\displaystyle f^{-1}}$ is uniformly continuous

In other words, a uniform isomorphism is a uniformly continuous bijection between uniform spaces whose inverse is also uniformly continuous.

If a uniform isomorphism exists between two uniform spaces they are called uniformly isomorphic or uniformly equivalent.

Uniform embeddings

A uniform embedding is an injective uniformly continuous map ${\displaystyle i:X\to Y}$ between uniform spaces whose inverse ${\displaystyle i^{-1}:i(X)\to X}$ is also uniformly continuous, where the image ${\displaystyle i(X)}$ has the subspace uniformity inherited from ${\displaystyle Y.}$

The uniform structures induced by equivalent norms on a vector space are uniformly isomorphic.
