The paper deals with pretangent spaces to general metric spaces. An ltrametricity criterion for pretangent spaces is found and it is closely related to the metric betweenness in the pretangent spaces.
We investigate a tangent space at a point of a general metric space and metric space valued derivatives. The conditions under which two different subspace of a metric space have isometric tangent spaces in a common point of these subspaces…
We are interested in studying doubling metric spaces with the property that at some of the points the metric tangent is unique. In such a setting, Finsler-Carnot-Caratheodory geometries and Carnot groups appear as models for the tangents.…
Pointwise tangential dimensions are introduced for metric spaces. Under regularity conditions, the upper, resp. lower, tangential dimensions of X at x can be defined as the supremum, resp. infimum, of box dimensions of the tangent sets, a…
Let $(X,d)$ be an unbounded metric space and $\tilde r=(r_n)_{n\in\mathbb N}$ be a scaling sequence of positive real numbers tending to infinity. We define the pretangent space $\Omega_{\infty, \tilde r}^{X}$ to $(X, d)$ at infinity as a…
These informal notes were prepared in connection with a lecture at a high school mathematics tournament, and provide an overview of some examples of metric spaces and a few of their basic properties.
Let $A\subseteq\mathbb C$ be a starlike set with a center $a$. We prove that every tangent space to $A$ at the point $a$ is isometric to the smallest closed cone, with the vertex $a$, which includes $A$. A partial converse to this result is…
The setting of metric spaces is very natural for numerous questions concerning manifolds, norms, and fractal sets, and a few of the main ingredients are surveyed here.
In this paper we introduce the concept of the rectangular metric like spaces, along with its topology and we prove some fixed point theorems under different contraction principles. We introduce the concept of modified metric-like space as…
We find conditions under which the pretangent spaces to general metric spaces have the nonpositive Aleksandrov curvature or nonnegative one. The infinitesimal structure of general metric cpaces with Busemann convex pretangent spaces is also…
In this article we studied the relationship between metric spaces and multiplicative metric spaces. Also, we pointed out some fixed and common fixed point results under some contractive conditions in multiplicative metric spaces can be…
Let (X,d,p) be a pointed metric space. A pretangent space to X at p is a metric space consisting of some equivalence classes of convergent to p sequences (x_n), x_n \in X, whose degree of convergence is comparable with a given scaling…
In this article, we introduce the concept of lexicographic metric space and, after discussing some basic properties of these metric spaces, such as completeness, boundedness, compactness and separability, we obtain a formula for the metric…
The question in the title is discussed briefly, with emphasis on a few basic examples and their properties.
A number of topics involving metrics and measures are discussed, including some of the special structure associated with ultrametrics.
A generalization of metric space is presented which is shown to admit a theory strongly related to that of ordinary metric spaces. To avoid the topological effects related to dropping any of the axioms of metric space, first a new, and…
This short note has been written as an Oberwolfach report for the workshop "Differentialgeometrie im Grossen". We discuss properties of metric spaces that at almost all points admit a tangent metric space. We explain why, under some mild…
We describe some Cartesian products of metric spaces and find conditions under which products of ultrametric spaces are ultrametric.
In this series of papers I examine a special kind of geometric objects that can be defined in space-time --- five-dimensional tangent vectors. Similar objects exist in any other differentiable manifold, and their dimension is one unit…
In this paper, we give an interesting extension of the partial S-metric space which was introduced [4] to the M_s-metric space. Also, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a fixed point for a self mapping on an Ms-metric space under…
