Metric Space Inversions, Quasihyperbolic Distance, and Uniform Spaces

چکیده
We define a notion of inversion valid in the general metric space setting. We establish several basic facts concerning inversions; e.g., they are quasimöbius homeomorphisms and quasihyperbolically bilipschitz. In a certain sense, inversion is dual to sphericalization. We demonstrate that both inversion and sphericalization preserve local quasiconvexity and annular quasiconvexity as well as uniformity.

Hyperbolizing Metric Spaces
It was proved by M. Bonk, J. Heinonen and P. Koskela that the quasihyperbolic metric hyperbolizes (in the sense of Gromov) uniform metric spaces. In this paper we introduce a new metric that hyperbolizes all locally compact noncomplete metric spaces. The metric is generic in the sense that (1) it can be defined on any metric space; (2) it preserves the quasiconformal geometry of the space; (3) ...
متن کاملAlgebraic distance in algebraic cone metric spaces and its properties
In this paper, we prove some properties of algebraic cone metric spaces and introduce the notion of algebraic distance in an algebraic cone metric space. As an application, we obtain some famous fixed point results in the framework of this algebraic distance.
متن کاملCompleteness in Probabilistic Metric Spaces
The idea of probabilistic metric space was introduced by Menger and he showed that probabilistic metric spaces are generalizations of metric spaces. Thus, in this paper, we prove some of the important features and theorems and conclusions that are found in metric spaces. At the beginning of this paper, the distance distribution functions are proposed. These functions are essential in defining p...
متن کاملOn the Structure of Metric-like Spaces
The main purpose of this paper is to introduce several concepts of the metric-like spaces. For instance, we define concepts such as equal-like points, cluster points and completely separate points. Furthermore, this paper is an attempt to present compatibility definitions for the distance between a point and a subset of a metric-like space and also for the distance between two subsets of a metr...
