Covers in a uniform space #
This file defines covers, aka nets, which are a quantitative notion of compactness given an entourage.
A U-cover of a set s is a set N such that every element of s is U-close to some element of
N.
The concept of uniform covers can be used to define two further notions of covering:
- Metric covers:
Metric.IsCover, defined using the distance entourage. - Dynamical covers:
Dynamics.IsDynCoverOf, defined using the dynamical entourage.

For an entourage U, a set N is a U-cover of a set s if every point of s is U-close
to some point of N.
This is also called a U-net in the literature.
