A Smarandache multi-space is a union of $n$ spaces $A_1,A_2,..., A_n$ with some additional conditions holding. Combining Smarandache multi-spaces with classical metric spaces, the conception of multi-metric space is introduced. Some…
The category of metric spaces is a subcategory of quasi-metric spaces. In this paper the notion of entropy for the continuous maps of a quasi-metric space is extended via spanning and separated sets. Moreover, two metric spaces that are…
This is a survey on nondiscrete euclidean buildings, with a focus on metric properties of these spaces.
We explore the relationship in metric spaces between different properties related to the Besicovitch covering theorem, and also consider weak versions of doubling, in connection to the non-uniqueness of centers and radii in arbitrary metric…
Momentum space of a gapped quantum system is a metric space: it admits a notion of distance reflecting properties of its quantum ground state. By using this quantum metric, we investigate geometric properties of momentum space. In…
In this paper, we study some new fixed point results for self maps defined on partial metric type spaces. In particular, we give common fixed point theorems in the same setting. Some examples are given which illustrate the results.
We study convex subsets of buildings, discuss some structural features and derive several characterizations of buildings.
We propose a novel measure of statistical depth, the metric spatial depth, for data residing in an arbitrary metric space. The measure assigns high (low) values for points located near (far away from) the bulk of the data distribution,…
In this paper, we define notions of $P_{Z}(S)$-metric and $P_{Z}(S)$-metric space and we show that every $P_{Z}(S)$-metric Space, analogous to an ordinary metric space and generally, a $\Lambda$-metric space, is a topological space, and in…
The main aim of the paper is to give a full classification (up to isometry) of all metric spaces X with the following two properties: X contains a compact set with non-empty interior; and for any three distinct points a, b and c of X there…
We prove that the Lipschitz-free space over a countable proper metric space is isometric to a dual space and has the metric approximation property. We also show that the Lipschitz-free space over a proper ultrametric space is isometric to…
This article provides an overview of various notions of shape spaces, including the space of parametrized and unparametrized curves, the space of immersions, the diffeomorphism group and the space of Riemannian metrics. We discuss the…
The magnitude of a metric space is a real-valued function whose parameter controls the scale of the metric. A metric space is said to have the one-point property if its magnitude converges to 1 as the space is scaled down to a point. Not…
In algorithms for finite metric spaces, it is common to assume that the distance between two points can be computed in constant time, and complexity bounds are expressed only in terms of the number of points of the metric space. We…
In this paper we introduce and study so-called $k^*$-metrizable spaces forming a new class of generalized metric spaces, and display various applications of such spaces in topological algebra, functional analysis, and measure theory. By…
Metric spaces $(X, d)$ are ubiquitous objects in mathematics and computer science that allow for capturing (pairwise) distance relationships $d(x, y)$ between points $x, y \in X$. Because of this, it is natural to ask what useful…
Here we have introduced the idea of rough convergence of sequences in a cone metric space. Also it has been investigated how far several basic properties of rough convergence as valid in a normed linear space are affected in a cone metric…
A generalization of the triangle inequality is introduced by a mapping similar to a t-conorm mapping. This generalization leads us to a notion for which we use the $\star$-metric terminology. We are interested in the topological space…
The space of all Riemannian metrics is infinite-dimensional. Nevertheless a great deal of usual Riemannian geometry can be carried over. The superspace of all Riemannian metrics shall be endowed with a class of Riemannian metrics; their…
What distributions arise as the distribution of the distance between two typical points in some measured metric space? This seems to be a surprisingly subtle problem. We conjecture that every distribution with a density function whose…
