A generalization of uniform convergence. A sequence of mappings from a topological space into a metric space converging pointwise to a mapping is called quasi-uniformly convergent if for any and any positive integer there exist a countable open covering of and a sequence of positive integers greater than such that for every . Uniform convergence implies quasi-uniform convergence. For sequences of continuous functions, quasi-uniform convergence is a necessary and sufficient condition for the limit function to be continuous (the Arzelà–Aleksandrov theorem).
