We say that a finite metric space $X$ can be embedded almost isometrically into a class of metric spaces $C$, if for every $\epsilon > 0$ there exists an embedding of $X$ into one of the elements of $C$ with the bi-Lipschitz distortion less…

Premetrics and premetrisable spaces have been long studied and their topological interrelationships are well-understood. Consider the category ${\bf Pre}$ of premetric spaces and $\epsilon$-$\delta$ continuous functions as morphisms. The…

With a complete residuated lattice $L$ as the truth value table, we extend the definition of sobriety of classical convex spaces to the framework of $L$-convex spaces. We provide a specific construction for the sobrification of an…

The paper is devoted to a categorical study of the category of probabilistic metric spaces. The study is based on an isomorphic description of the category of probabilistic metric spaces. The isomorphic description was obtained in [3] and…

Relational presheaves generalize traditional presheaves by going to the category of sets and relations (as opposed to sets and functions) and by allowing functors which are lax. This added generality is useful because it intuitively allows…

For complete affine manifolds we introduce a definition of compactification based on the projective differential geometry (i.e.\ geodesic path data) of the given connection. The definition of projective compactness involves a real parameter…

Wheeler emphasized the study of Superspace - the space of 3-geometries on a spatial manifold of fixed topology. This is a configuration space for GR; knowledge of configuration spaces is useful as regards dynamics and QM.In this Article I…

We study the model checking problem, for fixed structures A, over positive equality-free first-order logic -- a natural generalisation of the non-uniform quantified constraint satisfaction problem QCSP(A). We prove a complete complexity…

As a continuation of \cite{NSY:local}, we mainly discuss the global structure of two-dimensional locally compact geodesically complete metric spaces with curvature bounded above. We first obtain the result on the Lipschitz homotopy…

Completions of metric spaces are usually constructed using Cauchy sequences. However, this does not work for general uniform spaces, where Cauchy filters or nets must be used instead. The situation in pointfree topology is more…

This work presents a quantitative framework for describing the overcompleteness of a large class of frames. It introduces notions of localization and approximation between two frames $\mathcal{F} = \{f_i\}_{i \in I}$ and $\mathcal{E} =…

In this paper, we study a class of Finsler metrics composed by a Riemann metric $\alpha=\sqrt{a_{ij}(x)y^i y^j}$ and a $1$-form $\beta=b_i(x)y^i$ called general ($\alpha$, $\beta$)-metrics. We classify those projectively flat when $\alpha$…

Lawvere's generalised the notion of complete metric space to the field of enriched categories: an enriched category is said to be Cauchy-complete if every left adjoint bimodule into it is represented by an enriched functor. Looking at this…

We introduce enriched notions of purity depending on the left class $\mathcal E$ of a factorization system on the base $\mathcal V$ of enrichment. Ordinary purity is given by the class of surjective mappings in the category of sets. Under…
