Every isometry of a finite dimensional euclidean space is a product of reflections and the minimum length of a reflection factorization defines a metric on its full isometry group. In this article we identify the structure of intervals in…
A proof of the isometric embedding of a given two-metric in E^3 of class C^1. The method uses the theory of first order partial differential equations. The curvature of the metric plays no role in the proof.
An embeddability criterion for zero-dimensional metrizable topological spaces in zero-dimensional metrizable topological groups is given. A space which can be embedded as a closed subspace in a zero-dimensional metrizable group but is not…
We extend a recently proposed 1-nearest-neighbor based multiclass learning algorithm and prove that our modification is universally strongly Bayes-consistent in all metric spaces admitting any such learner, making it an "optimistically…
A generalization of the Lebesgue number lemma is obtained. It is proved that, if each countably infinite locally finite open cover of a chainable metric space $X$ has a Lebesgue number, then $X$ is totally bounded. A property of metric…
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…
A cone spherical metric is called irreducible if any developing map of the metric does not have monodromy in ${\rm U(1)}$. By using the theory of indigenous bundles, we construct on a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g_X \geq 1$ a…
Certain semi-Riemannian metrics may be decomposed into a Riemannian part and an isochronal part. We use this idea and an idea of Kasner to construct a manifold in 6+1 Minkowski space with a well known metric. The full embedding we display…
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.…
We prove that each sub-Riemannian manifold can be embedded in some Euclidean space preserving the length of all the curves in the manifold. The result is an extension of Nash $C^1$ Embedding Theorem. For more general metric spaces the same…
Metric embedding has become a common technique in the design of algorithms. Its applicability is often dependent on how high the embedding's distortion is. For example, embedding finite metric space into trees may require linear distortion…
This note tries to give an answer to the following question: Is there a sufficiently rich class of metric vector spaces such that sufficiently large spaces of continuous linear maps between them are metrizable?
A set is introreducible if it can be computed by every infinite subset of itself. Such a set can be thought of as coding information very robustly. We investigate introreducible sets and related notions. Our two main results are that the…
We show that, for a separable and complete metric space $M$, the Lipschitz-free space $\mathcal F(M)$ embeds linearly and almost-isometrically into $\ell_1$ if and only if $M$ is a subset of an $\mathbb R$-tree with length measure 0.…
In this paper, for a metrizable space $Z$, we consider the space of metrics that generate the same topology of $Z$, and that space of metrics is equipped with the supremum metrics. For a metrizable space $X$ and a closed subset $A$ of it,…
We study the intrinsic structure of parametric minimal discs in metric spaces admitting a quadratic isoperimetric inequality. We associate to each minimal disc a compact, geodesic metric space whose geometric, topological, and analytic…
We show that there is a compact topological space carrying a measure which is not a weak* limit of finitely supported measures but is in the sequential closure of the set of such measures. We construct compact spaces with measures of…
Much of the structure in metric spaces that allows for the creation of fractals exists in more generalized non-metrizable spaces. In particular the same theorems regarding the behavior of compact sets can be proven in the more general…
In a metric space $M=(X,d)$, we say that $v$ is between $u$ and $w$ if $d(u,w)=d(u,v)+d(v,w)$. Taking all triples $\{u,v,w\}$ such that $v$ is between $u$ and $w$, one can associate a 3-uniform hypergraph with each finite metric space $M$.…
We investigate how to glue hyperconvex (or injective) metric spaces such that the resulting space remains hyperconvex. We give two new criteria, saying that on the one hand gluing along strongly convex subsets and on the other hand gluing…
