Two uniform boundedness theorems

James DeWitt Stein

Vol. 38 (1971), No. 1, 251–260
Abstract

A geodesically convex space is a metric space in which each two points can be connected by a unique segment (a path of minimal length). An affine transformation between two geodesically convex spaces is a map which takes segments into segments. It is shown that, if the domain is complete, a pointwise-bounded family of continuous affine transformations is uniformly bounded. Under a mild additional hypothesis, the following stronger theorem holds: if

ℱ = {Tσ|A ∈ A }

is a pointwise-bounded family of affine transformatons and Ta is continuous on a closed geodesically convex Sα with

⋂
Sα ⁄= ∅,
A∈α

then α1,n such that 𝒯 is uniformly bounded on

 n⋂
S αk.
