Category: Metric spaces

In mathematics, a Busemann G-space is a type of metric space first described by Herbert Busemann in 1942. If is a metric space such that 1. * for every two distinct there exists such that 2. * every

In mathematics, a metric space is a set together with a notion of distance between its elements, usually called points. The distance is measured by a function called a metric or distance function. Met

In functional analysis and related areas of mathematics, a metrizable (resp. pseudometrizable) topological vector space (TVS) is a TVS whose topology is induced by a metric (resp. pseudometric). An LM

In metric geometry, the Karlsruhe metric is a measure of distance that assumes travel is only possible along rays through the origin and circular arcs centered at the origin. The name alludes to the l

In the mathematical study of order, a metric lattice L is a lattice that admits a positive valuation: a function v∈L→ℝ satisfying, for any a,b∈L, and

In geometry, an Hadamard space, named after Jacques Hadamard, is a non-linear generalization of a Hilbert space. In the literature they are also equivalently defined as complete CAT(0) spaces. A Hadam

In the mathematical study of functional analysis, the Banach–Mazur distance is a way to define a distance on the set of -dimensional normed spaces. With this distance, the set of isometry classes of -

In mathematics, an ultrametric space is a metric space in which the triangle inequality is strengthened to . Sometimes the associated metric is also called a non-Archimedean metric or super-metric. Al

In mathematical analysis and metric geometry, Laakso spaces are a class of metric spaces which are fractal, in the sense that they have non-integer Hausdorff dimension, but that admit a notion of diff
