From Wikiversity

Let be a -vector space, and let and be norms on . Then the following statements are equivalent.

  1. The two norms are equivalent.
  2. The identity

    is continuous when is endowed with the first norm on the left, and the second norm on the right, and vice versa.

  3. The -ball is bounded with respect to the -norm, and vice versa.
  4. There exist real numbers such that

    and

    holds for all .
