Wijsman hyperspaces of non-separable metric spaces

Rodrigo Hernández-Gutiérrez, Paul J. Szeptycki (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Given a metric space ⟨X,ρ⟩, consider its hyperspace of closed sets CL(X) with the Wijsman topology τ W ( ρ ) . It is known that C L ( X ) , τ W ( ρ ) is metrizable if and only if X is separable, and it is an open question by Di Maio and Meccariello whether this is equivalent to C L ( X ) , τ W ( ρ ) being normal. We prove that if the weight of X is a regular uncountable cardinal and X is locally separable, then C L ( X ) , τ W ( ρ ) is not normal. We also solve some questions by Cao, Junnila and Moors regarding isolated points in Wijsman hyperspaces. ...

Isometric embeddings of a class of separable metric spaces into Banach spaces

Sophocles K. Mercourakis, Vassiliadis G. Vassiliadis (2018)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Let ( M , d ) be a bounded countable metric space and c > 0 a constant, such that d ( x , y ) + d ( y , z ) - d ( x , z ) c , for any pairwise distinct points x , y , z of M . For such metric spaces we prove that they can be isometrically embedded into any Banach space containing an isomorphic copy of .

The nonexistence of universal metric flows

Stefan Geschke (2018)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We consider dynamical systems of the form ( X , f ) where X is a compact metric space and f : X X is either a continuous map or a homeomorphism and provide a new proof that there is no universal metric dynamical system of this kind. The same is true for metric minimal dynamical systems and for metric abstract ω -limit sets, answering a question by Will Brian.

Some approximate fixed point theorems without continuity of the operator using auxiliary functions

Sumit Chandok, Arslan Hojjat Ansari, Tulsi Dass Narang (2019)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We introduce partial generalized convex contractions of order 4 and rank 4 using some auxiliary functions. We present some results on approximate fixed points and fixed points for such class of mappings having no continuity condition in α -complete metric spaces and μ -complete metric spaces. Also, as an application, some fixed point results in a metric space endowed with a binary relation and some approximate fixed point results in a metric space endowed with a graph have been obtained....

The AR-Property of the spaces of closed convex sets

Katsuro Sakai, Masato Yaguchi (2006)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let C o n v H ( X ) , C o n v A W ( X ) and C o n v W ( X ) be the spaces of all non-empty closed convex sets in a normed linear space X admitting the Hausdorff metric topology, the Attouch-Wets topology and the Wijsman topology, respectively. We show that every component of C o n v H ( X ) and the space C o n v A W ( X ) are AR. In case X is separable, C o n v W ( X ) is locally path-connected.

On isometrical extension properties of function spaces

Hisao Kato (2015)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In this note, we prove that any “bounded” isometries of separable metric spaces can be represented as restrictions of linear isometries of function spaces C ( Q ) and C ( Δ ) , where Q and Δ denote the Hilbert cube [ 0 , 1 ] and a Cantor set, respectively.

Differential equations in metric spaces

Jacek Tabor (2002)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We give a meaning to derivative of a function u X , where X is a complete metric space. This enables us to investigate differential equations in a metric space. One can prove in particular Gronwall’s Lemma, Peano and Picard Existence Theorems, Lyapunov Theorem or Nagumo Theorem in metric spaces. The main idea is to define the tangent space 𝒯 x X of x X . Let u , v [ 0 , 1 ) X , u ( 0 ) = v ( 0 ) be continuous at zero. Then by the definition u and v are in the same equivalence class if they are tangent at zero, that is if lim h 0 + d ( u ( h ) , v ( h ) ) h = 0 . By...

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 2 n × S 1 and P 2 n + 1 . On the other hand we also show by elementary arguments...

Extending generalized Whitney maps

Ivan Lončar (2017)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

For metrizable continua, there exists the well-known notion of a Whitney map. If X is a nonempty, compact, and metric space, then any Whitney map for any closed subset of 2 X can be extended to a Whitney map for 2 X [3, 16.10 Theorem]. The main purpose of this paper is to prove some generalizations of this theorem.

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 ( , | | · | | ) be a Minkowski space with a unit ball and let ϱ H be the Hausdorff metric induced by | | · | | 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 for the Euclidean unit ball Bⁿ. We extend Schneider’s theorem to the hyperspace ( ² , ϱ H ) over any two-dimensional Minkowski space.
