Uniformization (set theory) — In set theory, the axiom of uniformization, a weak form of the axiom of choice, states that if R is a subset of X imes Y, where X and Y are Polish spaces,then there is a subset f of R that is a partial function from X to Y, and whose domain (in… … Wikipedia
Uniformization theorem — In mathematics, the uniformization theorem for surfaces says that any surface admits a Riemannian metric of constant Gaussian curvature. In fact, one can find a metric with constant Gaussian curvature in any given conformal class.In other words… … Wikipedia
