Abstract
Let be the Coxeter group of type B. We denote the set of indices where has a peak as and let . In \cite{metrics}, Diaz-Lopez, Haymaker, Keough, Park and White considered metrics for unsigned permutations with the same peak set. In this paper, we generalize their result by studying Hamming, , and the word metrics on for all . We also determine the minimum and maximum possible values that these metrics can achieve in these subsets of .
