The M-relative distance, denoted by \rho_M is a generalization of the p-relative distance, which was introduced by Ren-Cang Li. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions under which \rho_M is a metric. In two special cases we derive…

The triangular ratio metric is studied in subdomains of the complex plane and Euclidean $n$-space. Various inequalities are proven for it. The main results deal with the behavior of this metric under quasiconformal maps. We also study the…

Recently, a new distance has been introduced for the graphs of two point-to-set operators, one of which is maximally monotone. When both operators are the subdifferential of a proper lower semicontinuous convex function, this distance…
