Recent Advances on Quasi-Metric Spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Metric fixed-point theory lies in the intersection of three main subjects: topology, functional analysis, and applied mathematics. The first fixed-point theorem, also known as contraction mapping principle, was abstracted by Banach from the papers of ...

Torsion Wave Solutions in Yang-Mielke Theory of Gravity

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, 2015
The approach of metric-affine gravity initially distinguishes it from Einstein’s general relativity. Using an independent affine connection produces a theory with 10 + 64 unknowns. We write down the Yang-Mills action for the affine connection and produce

A Fisher-Rao metric for paracatadioptric images of lines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In a central paracatadioptric imaging system a perspective camera takes an image of a scene reflected in a paraboloidal mirror. A 360° field of view is obtained, but the image is severely distorted.

Infinitary rewriting: meta-theory and convergence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
When infinitary rewriting was introduced by Kaplan et.al. at the beginning of the 1990s, its term universe was explained as the metric completion of a metric on finite terms.

NATURAL METRIC FOR QUANTUM INFORMATION THEORY [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Quantum Information, 2009
We study in detail a very natural metric for quantum states. This new proposal has two basic ingredients: entropy and purification. The metric for two mixed states is defined as the square root of the entropy of the average of representative purifications of those states.

Theory of the norm-induced metric in atmospheric dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
We suggest that some metrics for quantifying distances in phase space are based on linearized flows about unrealistic reference states and hence may not be applicable to atmospheric flows.

On the gonality of metric graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The last decades have seen an extremely fruitful interplay between Riemann surfaces and graphs with a metric. A deformation process called tropicalisation transforms the former into the latter.
