We initiate the rigorous study of classification in quasi-metric spaces. These are point sets endowed with a distance function that is non-negative and also satisfies the triangle inequality, but is asymmetric. We develop and refine a…

We solve the problem of best approximation by partial isometries of given rank to an arbitrary rectangular matrix, when the distance is measured in any unitarily invariant norm. In the case where the norm is strictly convex, we parametrize…

A set of n non-collinear points in the Euclidean plane defines at least n different lines. Chen and Chv\'atal in 2008 conjectured that the same results is true in metric spaces for an adequate definition of line. More recently, this…

In this article, we introduce and investigate the concept of partial quasi-metric type space as a generalization of both partial quasi-metric and quasi-metric type spaces. We show that many important constructions studied in K\"unzi's…

We initiate the rigorous study of classification in semimetric spaces, which are point sets with a distance function that is non-negative and symmetric, but need not satisfy the triangle inequality. For metric spaces, the doubling dimension…

The point pair function $p_G$ defined in a domain $G\subsetneq\mathbb{R}^n$ is shown to be a quasi-metric and its other properties are studied. For a convex domain $G\subsetneq\mathbb{R}^n$, a new intrinsic quasi-metric called the function…

Answering a question about triangle inequality suggested by R. Li, A. Barrlund introduced a distance function which is a metric on a subdomain of ${\mathbb R}^n\,.$ We study this Barrlund metric and give sharp bounds for it in terms of…

The concept of a quasi-metric space arises by relaxing the requirement of the symmetry axiom in the definition of a metric. This small variation alters several structural properties possessed by a standard metric space. This article aims to…

In this paper, we propose a generalized notion of a distance function, called a $g$-metric. The $g$-metric with degree $n$ is a distance of $n+1$ points, generalizing the ordinary distance between two points and $G$-metric between three…
