The conventional definition of a topological metric over a space specifies properties that must be obeyed by any measure of "how separated" two points in that space are. Here it is shown how to extend that definition, and in particular the…

We consider the space of complete and separable metric spaces which are equipped with a probability measure. A notion of convergence is given based on the philosophy that a sequence of metric measure spaces converges if and only if all…

Given a closed orientable surface (\Sigma) of genus at least two, we establish an affine isomorphism between the convex compact set of isotopy-invariant topological measures on (\Sigma) and the convex compact set of additive functions on…

A measurable map between measure spaces is shown to have bounded compression if and only if its image via the measure-algebra functor is Lipschitz-continuous w.r.t. the measure-algebra distances. This provides a natural interpretation of…

A categorical generalization of the notion of movability from the inverse systems and shape theory was given by the first author who defined the notion of movable category and interpreted by this the movability of topological spaces. In…

Let (X,d) be a metric space of p-negative type. Recently I. Doust and A. Weston introduced a quantification of the p-negative type property, the so called gap {\Gamma} of X. This talk introduces some formulas for the gap {\Gamma} of a…

WWe define the notion of a random metric space and prove that with probability one such a space is isometricto the Urysohn universal metric space. The main technique is the study of universal and random distance matrices; we relate the…

In the present paper we show that the functor of idempotent probability measures satisfies all of conditions with an additional claim of uniform metrizability of functors.

We study topological properties of random metric spaces which arise by Lambda-coalescents. These are stochastic processes, which start with an infinite number of lines and evolve through multiple mergers in an exchangeable setting. We show…

S-metric and b-metric spaces are metrizable, but it is still quite impossible to get an explicit form of the concerned metric function. To overcome this, the notion of $\phi$-metric is developed by making a suitable modification in triangle…

There are two definitions of the measurable functional on the topological vector space: as a linear and measurable real-valued function and as a pointwise limit of the sequence of the continious linear functionals. In general case they are…

Probability metrics constitute an important tool in probability theory and statistics \cite{DKS91}, \cite{R91}, \cite{Z83} as they are specific metrics on spaces of random variables which, by satisfying an extra condition, concord well with…

We say that a metric graph is uniformly bounded if the degrees of all vertices are uniformly bounded and the lengths of edges are pinched between two positive constants; a metric space is approximable by a uniform graph if there is one…

Scalable frames are frames with the property that the frame vectors can be rescaled resulting in tight frames. However, if a frame is not scalable, one has to aim for an approximate procedure. For this, in this paper we introduce three…

In this paper, we address the problem of constructing a uniform probability measure on $\mathbb{N}$. Of course, this is not possible within the bounds of the Kolmogorov axioms and we have to violate at least one axiom. We define a…

Many data analysis problems can be cast as distance geometry problems in \emph{space forms} -- Euclidean, spherical, or hyperbolic spaces. Often, absolute distance measurements are often unreliable or simply unavailable and only proxies to…
