Probabilistic metric spaces

2001
In 1942 K. Menger introduced the notion of a statistical metric space as a natural generalization of the notion of a metric space (M, d) in which the distance d(p, q) (p, q ∈ M) between p and q is replaced by a distribution function F p, q ∈ Δ+. F p,q (x) can be interpreted as the probability that the distance between p and q is less than x.

Probabilistic b-Metric Spaces and Nonlinear Contractions [PDF]

open access: yesFixed Point Theory and Applications, 2017
AbstractThis work is for giving the probabilistic aspect to the knownb-metric spaces (Czerwik in Atti Semin. Mat. Fis. Univ. Modena 46(2):263-276, 1998), which leads to studying the fixed point property for nonlinear contractions in this new class of spaces.

Complete probabilistic metric spaces

Zeitschrift f�r Wahrscheinlichkeitstheorie und Verwandte Gebiete, 1971
Menger [4] initiated the study of probabilistic metric spaces in 1942. A probabilistic metric space (briefly a PM space) is a space in which the "distance" between any two points is a probability distribution function. These spaces are assumed to satisfy axioms which are quite similar to the axioms satisfied in an ordinary metric space.

Probabilistic enhancement of approximate indexing in metric spaces

Information Systems, 2013
Abstract Some approximate indexing schemes have been recently proposed in metric spaces which sort the objects in the database according to pseudo-scores. It is known that (1) some of them provide a very good trade-off between response time and accuracy, and (2) probability-based pseudo-scores can provide an optimal trade-off in range queries if the ...

On Generalized Contractions in Probabilistic Metric Spaces

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2011
In this paper, we introduce a generalized concept of contraction in probabilistic metric spaces. Coincidence and fixed point theorems for mappings with this contraction property are proved and particular cases are analyzed.

Pretopologies, preuniformities and probabilistic metric spaces

Acta Mathematica Hungarica, 2006
A pretopology on a given set can be generated from a filter of reflexive relations on that set (we call such a structure a preuniformity). We show that the familly of filters inducing a given pretopology on X form a com- plete lattice in the lattice of filters on X. The smallest and largest elements of that lattice are explicitly given.

On the isometric isomorphism of probabilistic metric spaces

Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, 2002
The article is devoted to isomorphisms of probabilistic metric spaces. Two theorems are proved: Theorem 1. If a probabilistic metric space \((E,F)\) is isometrically isomorphic to a generating space of a quasi-metric family, then there is a probabilistic metric space \((E',F')\) such tha t\((E,F)\) is isometrically isomorphic to \((E',F')\). Theorem 2.
