Definition

A null sequence is a term for a sequence that converges to 0.

This term requires a certain amount of structure on the space the sequence is in, namely for a 0 to make sense, so we're talking on a normed space really. All norms are also metric spaces however metric spaces have no notion of 0.

Typically first years learn about metrics, and deal with 0R this is of course a normed space too.
