This short review is devoted to measures on infinite dimensional spaces. We start by discussing product measures and projective techniques. Special attention is paid to measures on linear spaces, and in particular to Gaussian measures.…
We introduce a distance in the space of fully-supported probability measures on one-dimensional symbolic spaces. We compare this distance to the $\bar{d}$-distance and we prove that in general they are not comparable. Our projective…
We show that the problem whether a given finite metric space can be embedded into $m$-dimensional rectilinear space can be reformulated in terms of the Gromov--Hausdorff distance between some special finite metric spaces.
Distance measuring is a very important task in digital geometry and digital image processing. Due to our natural approach to geometry we think of the set of points that are equally far from a given point as a Euclidean circle. Using the…
Fractal geometry proved to be an effective mathematical tool for exploring real geographical space based on digital maps and remote sensing images. Whether the fractal theory tool can be applied to abstract geographical space has not been…
In algorithms for finite metric spaces, it is common to assume that the distance between two points can be computed in constant time, and complexity bounds are expressed only in terms of the number of points of the metric space. We…
In this note we begin a systematic study of compact conformal manifolds of SCFTs in four dimensions (our notion of compactness is with respect to the topology induced by the Zamolodchikov metric). Supersymmetry guarantees that such…
Author developed a uniform model for different spaces where distance and angle measure kinds are parameters. This model is calculus centric, but can also be used in theoretical research. It is useful in the following domains: deduction of…
An algebraic formulation of Riemannian geometry on quantum spaces is presented, where Riemannian metric, distance, Laplacian, connection, and curvature have their counterparts. This description is also extended to complex manifolds.…
This article provides a new perspective on the geometry of a projective line, which helps clarify and illuminate some classical results about projective plane. As part of the same train of ideas, the article also provides a proof of the…
The Busemann function has recently found much interest in a variety of geometric machine learning problems, as it naturally defines projections onto geodesic rays of Riemannian manifolds and generalizes the notion of hyperplanes. As several…
A projective parameter of a geodesic on a Finsler space is defined to be solution of a certain ODE. Using projective parameter and Funk metric, one can construct a projectively invariant intrinsic pseudo-distance on a Finsler space. In the…
We give a metric characterization of the scalar curvature of a smooth Riemannian manifold, analyzing the maximal distance between $(n+1)$ points in infinitesimally small neighborhoods of a point. Since this characterization is purely in…
The idea of minimum distance, familiar from R <-> 1/R duality when the string target space is a circle, is analyzed for less trivial geometries. The particular geometry studied is that of a blown-up quotient singularity within a Calabi-Yau…
It is shown that properties of a discrete space-time geometry distinguish from properties of the Riemannian space-time geometry. The discrete geometry is a physical geometry, which is described completely by the world function. The discrete…
Let $F$ be Cayley's ruled cubic surface in a projective three-space over any commutative field $K$. We determine all collineations fixing $F$, as a set, and all cubic forms defining $F$. For both problems the cases $|K|=2,3$ turn out to be…
One dimensional metrical geometry may be developed in either an affine or projective setting over a general field using only algebraic ideas and quadratic forms. Some basic results of universal geometry are already present in this…
For real projective spaces, (a) the Euclidean immersion dimension, (b) the existence of axial maps, and (c) the topological complexity are known to be three facets of the same problem. But when it comes to embedding dimension, the classical…
We introduce an alternative formalization of curved spaces in which the concept of a pointwise affine space, as defined here, replaces that of a manifold. New or modified definitions of familiar notions from differential geometry such as…
A rather complete investigation of anisotropic Bessel potential, Besov, and H\"older spaces on cylinders over (possibly) noncompact Riemannian manifolds with boundary is carried out. The geometry of the underlying manifold near its 'ends'…
