Continuous and uniformly continuous maps of powers of metric spaces (Q1891609)

The clone \(Cl(A, {\mathbf A})\) of an object \(A\) in a category \(\mathbf A\) with finite products is the full subcategory of \(\mathbf A\) whose objects are the finite powers \(A^n\) of \(A\). The author investigates for metric spaces \(A\) the relations between \(Cl(A, \mathbf{Top})\) and \(Cl(A, \mathbf{Unif})\). She demonstrates that these relations are rather loose. In particular it can happen that the monoids of continuous resp. uniformly continuous self maps \(A \to A\) are homomorphic, but that none of the categories \(Cl(A, \mathbf{Top})\) resp. \(Cl (A, \mathbf{Unif})\) is fully embeddable into the other.
