Starting from an axiomatic perspective, \emph{fluctuation geometry} is developed as a counterpart approach of inference geometry. This approach is inspired on the existence of a notable analogy between the general theorems of…
We introduce and study a universal model of random geometry in two dimensions. To this end, we start from a discrete graph drawn on the sphere, which is chosen uniformly at random in a certain class of graphs with a given size $n$, for…
