One way to study the combinatorics of finite metric spaces is to study the betweenness relation associated with the metric space. In the hypergraph metrization problem, one has to find and characterize metric betweennesses whose collinear…

We study side-lengths of triangles in path metric spaces. We prove that unless such a space X is bounded, or quasi-isometric to line or half-line, every triple of real numbers satisfying the strict triangle inequalities, is realized by the…

A quasi-metric is a distance function which satisfies the triangle inequality but is not symmetric: it can be thought of as an asymmetric metric. The central result of this thesis, developed in Chapter 3, is that a natural correspondence…

In this work we show that any connected locally connected graph defines a metric space having at least as many lines as vertices with only three exception: the complete multipartite graphs $K_{1,2,2}$, $K_{2,2,2}$ and $K_{2,2,2,2}$. This…

A metric space $(X,d)$ is called a $subline$ if every 3-element subset $T$ of $X$ can be written as $T=\{x,y,z\}$ for some points $x,y,z$ such that $d(x,z)=d(x,y)+d(y,z)$. By a classical result of Menger, every subline of cardinality $\ne…

In a recent paper A. Cianchi, N. Fusco, F. Maggi, and A. Pratelli have shown that, in the Gauss space, a set of given measure and almost minimal Gauss boundary measure is necessarily close to be a half-space. Using only geometric tools, we…

In this article, we introduce and investigate the concept of partial quasi-metric type space as a generalization of both partial quasi-metric and quasi-metric type spaces. We show that many important constructions studied in K\"unzi's…

We show that a homeomorphism of Euclidean space is quasiconformal if and only if at each point there exists a sequence of uncentered open sets with bounded eccentricity shrinking to that point whose images also have bounded eccentricity.…

A set in $\mathbb R^d$ is called almost-equidistant if for any three distinct points in the set, some two are at unit distance apart. First, we give a short proof of the result of Bezdek and L\'angi claiming that an almost-equidistant set…

In 2017 M. Bessenyei and Z. P\'ales introduced a definition of a triangle function which generates a concept of a generalized triangle inequality in semimetric spaces. Inspired by this concept we discuss already known inequalities in metric…

The notion of rectifying curve in the Euclidean space is introduced by Chen as a curve whose position vector always lies in its rectifying plane spanned by the tangent and the binormal vector field t and n_2 of the curve. In this study, we…

In this note, we present examples of non-quasi-geodesic metric spaces which are hyperbolic (i.e., satisfying the Gromov's $4$-point condition) while the intersection of any two metric balls therein does not either "look like" a ball or has…

This paper focuses on the best approximation in quasi-cone metric spaces, a combination of quasi-metrics and cone metrics, which generalizes the notion of distance by allowing it to take values in an ordered Banach space. We explore the…

We study the map degrees between quasitoric 4-manifolds. Our results rely on Theorems proved by Duan and Wang. We determine the set D (M, N) of all possible map degrees from M to N when M and N are certain quasitoric 4-manifolds. The…

Given a set of points in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^\ell$ with $\ell>1$, the pairwise distances between the points are determined by their spatial location and the metric $d$ that we endow $\mathbb{R}^\ell$ with. Hence, the distance…

This is a survey of a new type of relativistic space-time framework; the so-called quasi-metric framework. The basic geometric structure underlying quasi-metric relativity is quasi-metric space-time; this is defined as a 4-dimensional…

An ordinary plane of a finite set of points in real 3-space with no three collinear is a plane intersecting the set in exactly three points. We prove a structure theorem for sets of points spanning few ordinary planes. Our proof relies on…

In this work we present a version of the so called Chen and Chv\'atal's conjecture for directed graphs. A line of a directed graph D is defined by an ordered pair (u, v), with u and v two distinct vertices of D, as the set of all vertices w…

We show that in an L-annularly linearly connected, N-doubling, complete metric space, any n points lie on a K-quasi-circle, where K depends only on L, N and n. This implies, for example, that if G is a hyperbolic group that does not split…

This paper investigates quasi-isometries between graphs with variable edge lengths. A quasi-isometry is a mapping between metric spaces that approximately preserves distances, allowing for a bounded amount of additive and multiplicative…
