In a separably connected space any two points are contained in a separable connected subset. We show a mechanism that takes a connected bounded metric space and produces a complete connected metric space whose separablewise components form…
Recently Pelayo-V\~{u} Ngoc classified semitoric integrable systems in terms of five symplectic invariants. Using this classification we define a family of metrics on the space of semitoric integrable systems. The resulting metric space is…
The class of O-metric spaces generalize several existing metric-types in literature including metric spaces, b-metric spaces, and ultra metric spaces. In this paper, we discuss the properties of the topology induced by an O-metric and…
Moduli spaces - finite-dimensional, collective coordinate manifolds - for kinks and antikinks in $\phi^4$ theory and sine-Gordon theory are reconsidered. The field theory Lagrangian restricted to moduli space defines a reduced Lagrangian,…
We give an answer to the following question: for which metric in an abstract lattice the completion as a metric space coincides with the completion as a lattice. We obtain the answer for inductive limits of lattices which are complete in…
We study lift metrics and lift connections on the tangent bundle $TM$ of a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. We also investigate the statistical and Codazzi couples of $TM$ and their consequences on the geometry of $M$. Finally, we prove a…
Let $M$ be a Milnor sphere or, more generally, the total space of a linear $S^3$-bundle over $S^4$ with $H^4(M;\mathbb{Q})=0$. We show that the moduli space of metrics of nonnegative sectional curvature on $M$ has infinitely many path…

Thurston introduced in his seminal work an asymmetric metric on Teichm\"uller space by the ratio of simple closed curve length. In this paper, we generalize the idea and define an asymmetric metric on the space of unit-area flat metrics…
In this paper the notion of modular cone metric space is introduced and some properties of such spaces are investigated. Also we define convex modular cone metric which takes values in CR(Y) where Y is a compact Hausdorff space. Then a…
Simpson, in 1994, introduced the notion of $\Lambda$-modules and constructed the corresponding moduli space, where $\Lambda$ is a sheaf of rings of differential operators. Higgs bundles, connections and $\lambda$-connections (as defined by…
