Seminorm

Set

context $F$ … subfield of $\mathbb{C}$
context $V$ … $F$-vector space
definiendum $p\in \mathrm{SemiNorm}(V)$
postulate $p:V\to \mathbb R $
$v,w\in V$
postulate $p(v+w) \le p(v)+p(w)$
$\lambda\in F$
postulate $p(\lambda\cdot v) = |\lambda|\cdot p(v)$

Discussion

A Norm is a seminorm with the adition axiom

$p(v)=0 \implies v=0$

(which I also write as $p(!0)=0$.)
