Chambon Chambon A chambon is a piece of horse tack. It is a strap that runs forward from the bottom of the girth or surcingle, and forks. The forks continue to a ring on either side of the bridle or halter, at the base of the crownpiece. Running through those rings, the forks follow the cheekpieces to the bit. They may attach to the bit or pass through the bit rings and attach to themselves below the horse's neck. A chambon prevents the horse from raising its head beyond a fixed point. Raising the head causes the length of the chambon
Girth (functional analysis) within the sphere that they do in the whole space. The girth is a continuous function on the Banach–Mazur compactum, a space whose points correspond to the normed vector spaces of a given dimension. The girth of the dual space of a normed vector space is always equal to the girth of the original space. Girth (functional analysis) In functional analysis, the girth of a Banach space is the infimum of lengths of centrally symmetric simple closed curves in the unit sphere of the space. Equivalently, it is twice the infimum of distances between opposite points of the sphere, as
