Optimal isometries for a pair of compact convex subsets of ℝⁿ

Irmina Herburt, Maria Moszyńska (2009)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

In 1989 R. Arnold proved that for every pair (A,B) of compact convex subsets of ℝ there is an Euclidean isometry optimal with respect to L₂ metric and if f₀ is such an isometry, then the Steiner points of f₀(A) and B coincide. In the present paper we solve related problems for metrics topologically equivalent to the Hausdorff metric, in particular for $L_{p}$ metrics for all p ≥ 2 and the symmetric difference metric.

Concerning Sets of the First Baire Category with Respect to Different Metrics

Maria Moszyńska, Grzegorz Sójka (2010)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We prove that if $ϱ_{H}$ and δ are the Hausdorff metric and the radial metric on the space ⁿ of star bodies in ℝ, with 0 in the kernel and with radial function positive and continuous, then a family ⊂ ⁿ that is meager with respect to $ϱ_{H}$ need not be meager with respect to δ. Further, we show that both the family of fractal star bodies and its complement are dense in ⁿ with respect to δ.

Pairs of convex bodies in a hyperspace over a Minkowski two-dimensional space joined by a unique metric segment

Agnieszka Bogdewicz, Jerzy Grzybowski (2009)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Let $(ℝ, | | \cdot | |_{)}$ be a Minkowski space with a unit ball and let $ϱ_{H}^{}$ be the Hausdorff metric induced by ${| | \cdot | |}_{}$ in the hyperspace of convex bodies (nonempty, compact, convex subsets of ℝ). R. Schneider [RSP] characterized pairs of elements of which can be joined by unique metric segments with respect to $ϱ_{H}^{B ⁿ}$ for the Euclidean unit ball Bⁿ. We extend Schneider’s theorem to the hyperspace $(², ϱ_{H}^{})$ over any two-dimensional Minkowski space.

A generalization of boundedly compact metric spaces

Gerald Beer, Anna Di Concilio (1991)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

A metric space $〈 X, d 〉$ is called a $UC$ space provided each continuous function on $X$ into a metric target space is uniformly continuous. We introduce a class of metric spaces that play, relative to the boundedly compact metric spaces, the same role that $UC$ spaces play relative to the compact metric spaces.

On the metric reflection of a pseudometric space in ZF

Horst Herrlich, Kyriakos Keremedis (2015)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We show: (i) The countable axiom of choice $𝐂𝐀𝐂$ is equivalent to each one of the statements: (a) a pseudometric space is sequentially compact iff its metric reflection is sequentially compact, (b) a pseudometric space is complete iff its metric reflection is complete. (ii) The countable multiple choice axiom $𝐂𝐌𝐂$ is equivalent to the statement: (a) a pseudometric space is Weierstrass-compact iff its metric reflection is Weierstrass-compact. (iii) The axiom of choice $𝐀𝐂$ is equivalent to each...

Metric enrichment, finite generation, and the path coreflection

Alexandru Chirvasitu (2024)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

We prove a number of results involving categories enriched over CMet, the category of complete metric spaces with possibly infinite distances. The category CPMet of path complete metric spaces is locally $ℵ_{1}$ -presentable, closed monoidal, and coreflective in CMet. We also prove that the category CCMet of convex complete metric spaces is not closed monoidal and characterize the isometry- $ℵ_{0}$ -generated objects in CMet, CPMet and CCMet, answering questions by Di Liberti and Rosický. Other results...

Characterizing metric spaces whose hyperspaces are homeomorphic to ℓ₂

T. Banakh, R. Voytsitskyy (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

It is shown that the hyperspace $C l d_{H} (X)$ (resp. $B d d_{H} (X)$ ) of non-empty closed (resp. closed and bounded) subsets of a metric space (X,d) is homeomorphic to ℓ₂ if and only if the completion X̅ of X is connected and locally connected, X is topologically complete and nowhere locally compact, and each subset (resp. each bounded subset) of X is totally bounded.

Well-posedness of optimization problems and Hausdorff metric on partial maps

Alessandro Caterino, Rita Ceppitelli, Ľubica Holà (2006)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

The object of this paper is the Hausdorff metric topology on partial maps with closed domains. This topological space is denoted by $(\mathcal{P},H_{\rho})$ . An equivalence of well-posedness of constrained continuous problems is proved. By using the completeness of the Hausdorff metric on the space of usco maps with moving domains, the complete metrizability of $(\mathcal{P},H_{\rho})$ is investigated.

The Banach contraction mapping principle and cohomology

Ludvík Janoš (2000)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

By a dynamical system $(X, T)$ we mean the action of the semigroup $(ℤ^{+}, +)$ on a metrizable topological space $X$ induced by a continuous selfmap $T : X \to X$ . Let $M (X)$ denote the set of all compatible metrics on the space $X$ . Our main objective is to show that a selfmap $T$ of a compact space $X$ is a Banach contraction relative to some $d_{1} \in M (X)$ if and only if there exists some $d_{2} \in M (X)$ which, regarded as a $1$ -cocycle of the system $(X, T) \times (X, T)$ , is a coboundary.

Adjacent dyadic systems and the $L^{p}$ -boundedness of shift operators in metric spaces revisited

Olli Tapiola (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

With the help of recent adjacent dyadic constructions by Hytönen and the author, we give an alternative proof of results of Lechner, Müller and Passenbrunner about the $L^{p}$ -boundedness of shift operators acting on functions $f \in L^{p} (X; E)$ where 1 < p < ∞, X is a metric space and E is a UMD space.

Some Čebyšev sets with dimension d + 1 in hyperspaces over $ℝ^{d}$

R. J. MacG. Dawson (2009)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

A Čebyšev set in a metric space is one such that every point of the space has a unique nearest neighbour in the set. In Euclidean spaces, this property is equivalent to being closed, convex, and nonempty, but in other spaces classification of Čebyšev sets may be significantly more difficult. In particular, in hyperspaces over normed linear spaces several quite different classes of Čebyšev sets are known, with no unifying description. Some new families of Čebyšev sets in hyperspaces are...

The discriminant and oscillation lengths for contact and Legendrian isotopies

Vincent Colin, Sheila Sandon (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We define an integer-valued non-degenerate bi-invariant metric (the discriminant metric) on the universal cover of the identity component of the contactomorphism group of any contact manifold. This metric has a very simple geometric definition, based on the notion of discriminant points of contactomorphisms. Using generating functions we prove that the discriminant metric is unbounded for the standard contact structures on $ℝ^{2 n} \times S^{1}$ and $ℝ P^{2 n + 1}$ . On the other hand we also show by elementary arguments...
