چکیده
We study three Möbius invariant metrics, and three affine invariant analogs, all of which are bilipschitz equivalent to the Poincaré hyperbolic metric. We exhibit numerous illustrative examples.

A Tale of Two Conformally Invariant Metrics
The Harnack metric is a conformally invariant metric defined in quite general domains that coincides with the hyperbolic metric in the disk. We prove that the Harnack distance is never greater than the hyperbolic distance and if the two distances agree for one pair of distinct points, then either the domain is simply connected or it is conformally equivalent to the punctured disk.
متن کاملThe Apollonian Metric: Limits of the Comparison and Bilipschitz Properties
The Apollonian metric is a generalization of the hyperbolic metric introduced by Beardon [2]. It is defined in arbitrary domains in Rn and is Möbius invariant. Another advantage over the well-known quasihyperbolic metric [8] is that it is simpler to evaluate. On the downside, points cannot generally be connected by geodesics of the Apollonian metric. This paper is the last in a series of four p...
متن کاملSphericalization and Flattening
The conformal deformations of flattening and sphericalization of length metric spaces are considered. These deformations are dual to each other if the space satisfies a simple quantitative connectivity property. Moreover, the quasihyperbolic metrics corresponding to the flat and the spherical metrics are bilipschitz equivalent if a weaker connectivity condition is satisfied.
متن کاملGeodesic Manifolds with a Transitive Subset of Smooth Bilipschitz Maps
This paper is connected with the problem of describing path metric spaces which are homeomorphic to manifolds and biLipschitz homogeneous, i.e., whose biLipschitz homeomorphism group acts transitively. Our main result is the following. LetX = G/H be a homogeneous space of a Lie group G, and let d be a geodesic distance on X inducing the same topology. Suppose there exists a subgroup GS of G whi...
متن کاملHyperbolic-type metrics
The article is a status report on the contemporary research of hyperbolic-type metrics, and considers progress in the study of the classes of isometryand bilipschitz mappings with respect to some of the presented metrics. Also, the Gromov hyperbolicity question is discussed.
