The Calabi metric for the space of Kähler metrics [PDF]

open access: yesMathematische Annalen, 2011
Given any closed Kaehler manifold we define, following an idea by Eugenio Calabi, a Riemannian metric on the space of Kaehler metrics regarded as an infinite dimensional manifold. We prove several geometrical features of the resulting space, some of which we think were already known to Calabi.

The Gromov–Hausdorff metric on the space of compact metric spaces is strictly intrinsic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
It is proved that the Gromov-Hausdorff metric on the space of compact metric spaces considered up to an isometry is strictly intrinsic, i.e., the corresponding metric space is geodesic.

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Tangent spaces to metric spaces and to their subspaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We investigate a tangent space at a point of a general metric space and metric space valued derivatives. The conditions under which two different subspace of a metric space have isometric tangent spaces in a common point of these subspaces are completely

Plasticity in metric spaces

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 2006
Recall that a mapping \(f\) from a metric space \((X,d)\) into itself is called non-contractive if \(d(f(x),f(y))\geq d(x,y)\) for all \(x,y\in X\). The authors call a metric space \((X,d)\) an EC-space if every noncontractive bijection from \(X\) onto itself is an isometry. A metric space that is not an EC-space is called an NEC-space.

Dimension of metric spaces [PDF]

open access: yesFundamenta Mathematicae, 1956
It is to be shown that a metric space has dimension ≤ n if and only if there exists a sequence {{ai} of locally finite open coverings, each of order ≤ n, with mesh tending to zero as i→∞, such that (a) the closure of each member of ai+1 is contained in some member of ai+1 is contained in some member of ai.

Common fixed points for weak commutative mappings on a multiplicative metric space

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper, we discuss the unique common fixed point of two pairs of weak commutative mappings on a complete multiplicative metric space. They satisfy the following inequality: d(Sx,Ty)≤{max{d(Ax,By),d(Ax,Sx),d(By,Ty),d(Sx,By),d(Ax,Ty)}}λ, where A and

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

A Kernel-Based Calculation of Information on a Metric Space

open access: yes, 2013
Kernel density estimation is a technique for approximating probability distributions. Here, it is applied to the calculation of mutual information on a metric space.

The Space of Kähler Metrics

open access: yesJournal of Differential Geometry, 2000
Donaldson conjectured \cite{Dona96} that the space of K hler metrics is geodesic convex by smooth geodesic and that it is a metric space. Following Donaldson's program, we verify the second part of Donaldson's conjecture completely and verify his first part partially.
