In mathematics, a mathematical object is said to satisfy a property locally, if the property is satisfied on some limited, immediate portions of the object (e.g., on some ''sufficiently small'' or ''arbitrarily small'' neighborhoods of points). Properties of a point on a function Perhaps the best-known example of the idea of locality lies in the concept of local minimum (or local maximum), which is a point in a function whose functional value is the smallest (resp., largest) within an immediate neighborhood of points. This is to be contrasted with the idea of global minimum (or global maximum), which corresponds to the minimum (resp., maximum) of the function across its entire domain. Properties of a single space A topological space is sometimes said to exhibit a property locally, if the property is exhibited "near" each point in one of the following ways: # Each point has a neighborhood exhibiting the property; # Each point has a neighborhood base of sets exhibiting the prop ...
