Several authors have pointed out the connection between Barbilian's metric introduced in 1934 and the recent study of Apollonian metrics. We provide examples of various distances that can be obtained by Barbilian's metrization procedure and…

A generalization of metric space is presented which is shown to admit a theory strongly related to that of ordinary metric spaces. To avoid the topological effects related to dropping any of the axioms of metric space, first a new, and…

A method of induction the distances with Hilbert structure is proposed. Some properties of the method are studied. Typical examples of corresponding metric spaces are discussed. Key words: Hilbert spaces; metric spaces; isometric embedding…

Suppose that a metric space $X$ is the union of two metric subspaces $A$ and $B$ that embed into Euclidean space with distortions $D_A$ and $D_B$, respectively. We prove that then $X$ embeds into Euclidean space with a bounded distortion…

Consider the sum of the first $N$ eigenspaces for the Laplacian on a Riemannian manifold. A basis for this space determines a map to Euclidean space and for $N$ sufficiently large the map is an embedding. In analogy with a fruitful idea of…

Metric spaces are a fundamental component of mathematics and have a paramount importance as a framework for measuring distance. They can be found in many different branches of mathematics, such as analysis and topology. This paper offers an…

In this survey we present a generalization of the notion of metric space and some applications to discrete structures as graphs, ordered sets and transition systems. Results in that direction started in the middle eighties based on the…

In many applications, one is interested in the shape of an object, like the contour of a bone or the trajectory of joints of a tennis player, irrespective of the way these shapes are parameterized. However for analysis of these shape…

{Researchers recently introduced interpolative metric spaces and established fixed-point theorems in this setting. We demonstrate that these metrics are a special case of b-metrics. On the other hand, suprametrics and b-suprametrics have…

This paper gives a short introduction into the metric theory of spaces with dilations.

Current practice in parameter space exploration in euclidean space is dominated by randomized sampling or design of experiment methods. The biggest issue with these methods is not keeping track of what part of parameter space has been…

Given any closed Kaehler manifold we define, following an idea by Eugenio Calabi, a Riemannian metric on the space of Kaehler metrics regarded as an infinite dimensional manifold. We prove several geometrical features of the resulting…

We give a short introduction to the theory of modular metric spaces. This is a corrected version of the paper [1], which had some errors. We are grateful to V. V. Chistyakov for bringing these to our attention.

Metric spaces are generalized by many scholars. Recently, Khatami and Mirzavaziri use a mapping called $t$-definer to popularize the triangle inequality and give a generalization of the notion of a metric, which is called a $\star$-metric.…
