-"Minkowskian" as it's a misnomer. Frobenius -> equilateral since Frobenius would imply the Euclidean norm
Norm: finish removing "minkowskian"

The Manhattan norm or taxicab norm aka ''L''<sup>1</sup> norm resembles movement of taxicabs in Manhattan – it can only traverse horizontally or vertically. A diagonal movement mounts to two steps.

The Chebyshevian norm aka ''L''<sup>infinity</sup> norm is the opposite of the Minkowskian norm – it is the maximum number of steps in any direction, so a diagonal movement is the same as a horizontal or vertical one.

It should be noted that the dual norm of ''L''<sup>1</sup> is ''L''<sup>infinity</sup>, and vice versa. Thus, the Minkowskian norm corresponds to the ''L''<sup>infinity</sup> tuning space, and the Chebyshevian norm corresponds to the ''L''<sup>1</sup> tuning space. The dual of ''L''<sup>2</sup> norm is itself, so the Euclidean norm corresponds to Euclidean tuning as one may expect.
