In mathematics, a space is a set (sometimes called a universe) with some added structure.

Description

Mathematical spaces often form a hierarchy, i.e., one space may inherit all the characteristics of a parent space.

For instance, all inner product spaces are also normed vector spaces, because the inner product induces a norm on the inner product space.
