Lossless Prioritized Embeddings [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2020 Given metric spaces $(X,d)$ and $(Y,ρ)$ and an ordering $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n$ of $(X,d)$, an embedding $f: X \rightarrow Y$ is said to have a prioritized distortion $α(\cdot)$, if for any pair $x_j,x'$ of distinct points in $X$, the distortion provided by $f$ for this pair is at most $α(j)$.
