Abstract
Let \(X\) and \(Y\) be metrizable spaces. A map \(X\;\mathop \to \limits^f \;Y\) is called topologically uniformly continuous if for every admissible (i.e., consistent with topology) metric \(\rho \) on \(X\) there exists an admissible metric \(\sigma \) on \(Y\) such that the map \((X,\rho )\;\mathop \to \limits^f \;(Y,\sigma )\) is uniformly continuous for the metric spaces \((X,\rho )\) and \((Y,\sigma )\) . This paper analyzes such maps. The main result is that, in a certain sense, topologically uniformly continuous maps are close to perfect maps.
