We prove that a symmetric nonnegative function of two variables on a Lebesgue space that satisfies the triangle inequality for almost all triples of points is equivalent to some semimetric. Some other properties of metric triples (spaces…
Recently many papers on cone metric spaces have been appeared, and main topological properties of such spaces have been obtained. A cone metric space is Hausdorff, and first countable, so the topology of it coincides with a topology induced…
In this paper, we first define the concept of convexity in G-metric spaces. We then use Mann iterative process in this newly defined convex G-metric space to prove some convergence results for some classes of mappings. In this way, we can…
In this paper we combine the notions of partial metric spaces with negative distances, $G_p$-metric spaces and n-metric spaces together into one structure called the partial n-metric spaces. These are generalizations of all the said…
Discrete partially ordered sets can be turned into distance spaces in several ways. The distance functions may or may not satisfy the triangle inequality, and restriction of the distance to finite chains may or may not coincide with the…
A real valued function $\varphi$ of one variable is called a metric transform if for every metric space $(X,d)$ the composition $d_\varphi = \varphi\circ d$ is also a metric on $X$. We give a complete characterization of the class of…
Very recently, Mehadi et al [M. Asadi, E. Karap{\i}nar, and P. Salimi, New extension of partial metric spaces with some fixed-point results on $M-$metric spaces] extended the partial metric spaces to the notion of $M-$metric spaces. In this…
Some concepts, such as non-compactness measure and condensing operators, defined on metric spaces are extended to uniform spaces. Such extensions allow us to locate, in the context of uniform spaces, some classical results existing in…
Recently, a new geometric approach which is called the fixed-circle problem has been gained to fixed-point theory. The problem is introduced and studied using different techniques on metric spaces. In this paper, we consider the…
We introduce and systematically study a profile function whose asymptotic behavior quantifies the dimension or the size of a metric approximation of a finitely generated group $G$ by a family of groups $\mathcal{F}=\{(G_{\alpha},…
Mustafa and Sims [12] introduced the notion of $G$-metric as a possible generalization of usual notion of a metric space. The author generalized the notion of G-metric to more than three variables and introduced the concept of Generalized…
Some results on the approximation of functions from the Sobolev spaces on metric graphs by step functions are obtained. The estimates are uniform with respect to all graphs of a given finite length, and the constant factors in the…
Graphs are used in almost every scientific discipline to express relations among a set of objects. Algorithms that compare graphs, and output a closeness score, or a correspondence among their nodes, are thus extremely important. Despite…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of partial extended b-metric spaces (PEBMS) as a unification and generalization of extended b-metric spaces and partial b-metric spaces. This new structure incorporates a point-dependent control…
A new notion of metric differentiability of set-valued functions at a point is introduced in terms of right and left limits of special set-valued metric divided differences of first order. A local metric linear approximant of a metrically…
Any three-dimensional Riemannian metric can be locally obtained by deforming a constant curvature metric along one direction. The general interest of this result, both in geometry and physics, and related open problems are stressed.
In this article, we present a new characterization of the completeness of a partial metric space--which we call \textit{orbital characterization}-- using fixed point results.
We study the metric structure of walks on graphs, understood as Lipschitz sequences. To this end, a weighted metric is introduced to handle sequences, enabling the definition of distances between walks based on stepwise vertex distances and…
On a complete, connected, locally compact, non-compact geodesic space $(X,d)$, we assign each compact set a distance-like function. With the help of these functions, we obtain a pseudo-metric on the space of (non-empty) compact subsets of…
In this article, we introduce a new type of mapping contracting perimeters of triangles in a complete metric space and present related fixed point theorem. We study the metric completeness property of the underlying space in terms of fixed…
