Defining the Mean of a Real-Valued Function on an Arbitrary Metric Space

General Mathematics 2008-08-11 v2

Abstract

We show how a metric space induces a linear functional (a "mean") on real-valued functions with domains in that metric space. This immediately induces a "relative" measure on a collection of subsets of the underlying set.
