It is shown that a possibly infinite-valued proper lower semicontinuous convex function on ${\mathbb R}^n$ has an extension to a convex function on the half-space ${\mathbb R}^n\times[0,\infty)$ which is finite and smooth on the open…

In the setting of a metric space that is equipped with a doubling measure and supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we show that the total variation of functions of bounded variation is lower semicontinuous with respect to $L^1$-convergence in…

We consider discrete metric spaces and we look for non-constant contractions. We introduce the notion of contractive map and we characterize the spaces with non-constant contractive maps. We provide some examples to discussion the possible…

Let $Y$ be a subspace of a topological vector space $X$, and $A\subset X$ an open convex set that intersects $Y$. We say that the property $(QE)$ [property $(CE)$] holds if every continuous quasiconvex [continuous convex] function on $A\cap…

This paper is concerned with the characterizations of quasi self-adjoint extensions of a class of formally non-self-adjoint discrete Hamiltonian systems. Some properties of the solutions and the characterization of the minimal linear…

We derive a quasiconformal extension to 3-space of the Weierstrass-Enneper lifts of a class of harmonic mappings defined in the unit disk. The extension is based on fibrations of space by circles in domain and image that correspond to each…

The complexity quasi-metric of Schellekens is a topological framework in which the asymmetry of computational comparisons -- ``$A$ is at most as fast as $B$'' carrying different information than ``$B$ is at most as slow as $A$'' -- is built…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be pseudocompact spaces and let the function $\Phi: X\times Y\to \mathbb R$ be separately continuous. The following conditions are equivalent: (1) there is a dense $G_\delta$ subset of $D\subset Y$ so that $\Phi$ is…

We investigate geometric properties of a metric measure space where every function in the Newton--Sobolev space $N^{1,\infty}(Z)$ has a Lipschitz representative. We prove that when the metric space is locally complete and the reference…

We present a notion of precompactness, and study some of its properties, in the context of apartness spaces whose apartness structure is not necessarily induced by any uniform one. The presentation lies entirely with a Bishop-style…

In this paper, we introduce patchwork constructions for multivariate quasi-copulas. These results appear to be new since the kind of approach has been limited to either copulas or only bivariate quasi-copulas so far. It seems that the…

We show that the probabilistic distribution over the space in the spectator world, can be associated via noncommutative geometry (with some modifications) to a metric in which the particle lives. According to this geometrical view, the…

This paper investigates whether some fixed point theorems for quasi-contractions on metric spaces introduced by \`Cir\`ic in [1] and generalised by Kumam et al. in [2] can be improved further. It turns out that the answer is negative. We…

We initiate the rigorous study of classification in quasi-metric spaces. These are point sets endowed with a distance function that is non-negative and also satisfies the triangle inequality, but is asymmetric. We develop and refine a…

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…

In this paper, we study the quasisymmetric embeddability of weak tangents of metric spaces. We first show that quasisymmetric embeddability is hereditary, i.e., if $X$ can be quasisymmetrically embedded into $Y$, then every weak tangent of…

In this paper we consider partial metric spaces in the sense of O'Neill. We introduce the notions of strong partial metric spaces and Cauchy functions. We prove a fixed point theorem for such spaces and functions that improves Matthews'…

We provide new necessary and sufficient conditons for ensuring strong quasiconvexity in the nonsmooth case and, as a consequence, we provide a proof for the differentiable case. Furthermore, we improve the quadratic growth property for…

In this paper, we extend the Banach contraction principle to metric-like as well as partial metric spaces (not essentially complete) equipped with an arbitrary binary relation. Thereafter, we derive some fixed point results which are…

When finding an original proof to a known result describing expansive mappings on compact metric spaces as surjective isometries, we reveal that relaxing the condition of compactness to total boundedness preserves the isometry property and…
