The monzos under this embedding now define a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_%28group%29|lattice]], which is a discrete subgroup spanning the finite dimensional real normed vector space I. If we change coordinates by multiplying values in the coordinate belonging to the prime k by log2(k), then the norm becomes the standard [[http://mathworld.wolfram.com/L1-Norm.html|L1 norm]]. This vector space is Tenney interval space, and the transformed coordinates with the standard L1 norm form the standard basis for Tenney space. It should be noted that while monzos correspond uniquely to positive real numbers (always rational numbers in the case of monzos), vectors in Tenney space do not.

Because of the mathematical advantages of Euclidean norms, a Euclidean norm is often placed on the vectors in interval space instead of an L1 norm, in which case we have [[Tenney-Euclidean metrics|Tenney-Euclidean interval space]] instead of Tenney interval space.
