Abstract

We develop a theory of probabilistic uniform convergence spaces based on Tardiff’s neighbourhood systems for probabilistic metric spaces. We show that the resulting category is topological and Cartesian closed. A subcategory is identified that is isomorphic to the category of probabilistic metric spaces.
