Pseudometric space

In mathematics, a pseudometric space is a generalization of a metric space in which the distance between two distinct points can be zero. Pseudometric spaces were introduced by Đuro Kurepa in 1934. In the same way as every normed space is a metric space, every seminormed space is a pseudometric space. Because of this analogy the term semimetric space (which has a different meaning in topology) is sometimes used as a synonym, especially in functional analysis. When a topology is generated using a family of pseudometrics, the space is called a gauge space. (Wikipedia).

The circle and projective homogeneous coordinates | Universal Hyperbolic Geometry 7a | NJ Wildberger

Universal hyperbolic geometry is based on projective geometry. This video introduces this important subject, which these days is sadly absent from most undergrad/college curriculums. We adopt the 19th century view of a projective space as the space of one-dimensional subspaces of an affine

WHEN SPACE DOES NOT HAVE DISTANCE: What is the Long Line in Math and Other Examples (Version 2.0)

In many ways metric spaces grant a large amount of structure to a topological space. So it's natural to ask what happens when space does not have distance defined on it. Can we still talk about things like size or even compare these types of spaces to other metrizable spaces? The answer is

Patrizio Frosini (8/30/21): On the role of group equivariant non-expansive operators in TDA

Group equivariant non-expansive operators (GENEOs) have been recently introduced as mathematical tools for approximating data observers, when data are represented by real-valued or vector-valued functions. The use of these operators is based on the assumption that the interpretation of dat
