Recently the present authors established refined versions of Bohr's inequality in the case of bounded analytic functions. In this article, we state and prove a generalization of these results in a reformulated "distance form" version and…

We study a new class of distances between Radon measures similar to those studied in a recent paper of Dolbeault-Nazaret-Savar\'e [DNS]. These distances (more correctly pseudo-distances because can assume the value $+\infty$) are defined…

For non-empty sets X we define notions of distance and pseudo metric with values in a partially ordered set that has a smallest element $\theta $. If $h_X$ is a distance in $X$ (respectively, a pseudo metric in $X$), then the pair $(X,h_X)$…

We introduce a framework for quasi-Newton forward--backward splitting algorithms (proximal quasi-Newton methods) with a metric induced by diagonal $\pm$ rank-$r$ symmetric positive definite matrices. This special type of metric allows for a…

We present a proof of the folklore result that any length metric on $\mathbb R^d$ can be approximated by conformally flat Riemannian distance functions in the uniform distance. This result is used to study Liouville quantum gravity in…

This work briefly explores the possibility of approximating spatial distance (alternatively, similarity) between data points using the Isolation Forest method envisioned for outlier detection. The logic is similar to that of isolation: the…

We extend monotone quasiconformal mappings from dimension n to n+1 while preserving both monotonicity and quasiconformality. The extension is given explicitly by an integral operator. In the case n=1 it yields a refinement of the…

Consider a mapping $f\colon X\to Y$ between two metric measure spaces. We study generalized versions of the local Lipschitz number $\mathrm{Lip} f$, as well as of the distortion number $H_f$ that is used to define quasiconformal mappings.…

If one thinks of a Riemannian metric, $g_1$, analogously as the gradient of the corresponding distance function, $d_1$, with respect to a background Riemannian metric, $g_0$, then a natural question arises as to whether a corresponding…

The purpose of this paper is to study more general real-valued functions of two variables than just metrics on a set X. We concentrate mainly on the classes of distances and almost distances. We also introduce the notion of a bridge on the…
