Sequentially complete

In mathematics, specifically in topology and functional analysis, a subspace S of a topological vector space (TVS) X is said to be sequentially complete or semi-complete if every Cauchy sequence in S converges to an element in S. We call X sequentially complete if it is a sequentially complete subset of itself.

Examples

Every complete space is sequentially complete but not conversely. If a TVS is metrizable then it is complete if and only if it is sequentially complete.
