Definition

Let $\struct {X, \norm \cdot}$ be a normed vector space.


We say that $X$ is uniformly convex if and only if:

for every $\epsilon > 0$ there exists $\delta > 0$ such that:
whenever $x, y \in X$ have $\norm x = \norm y = 1$ and $\norm {x - y} > \epsilon$, we have:
$\ds \norm {\frac {x + y} 2} < 1 - \delta$
