Space of spaces as a metric space

چکیده

In spacetime physics, we frequently need to consider a set of all spaces (‘universes’) as a whole. In particular, the concept of ‘closeness’ between spaces is essential. However there has been no established mathematical theory so far which deals with a space of spaces in a suitable manner for spacetime physics. Based on the scheme of the spectral representation of geometry, we construct a space SN , which is a space of all compact Riemannian manifolds equipped with the spectral measure of closeness. We show that SN can be regarded as a metric space. We also show other desirable properties of SN , such as the partition of unity, locally-compactness and the second countability. These facts show that the space SN can be a basic arena for spacetime physics. Running Title: ‘Space of spaces as a metric space’ or ‘Space of spaces’

On the Structure of Metric-like Spaces

The main purpose of this paper is to introduce several concepts of the metric-like spaces. For instance, we define concepts such as equal-like points, cluster points and completely separate points. Furthermore, this paper is an attempt to present compatibility definitions for the distance between a point and a subset of a metric-like space and also for the distance between two subsets of a metr...

Fixed points of $(psi,varphi)_{Omega}$-contractive mappings in ordered p-metric spaces

In this paper, we introduce the notion of an extended metric space ($p$-metric space) as a new generalization of the concept of $b$-metric space. Also, we present the concept of $(psi ,varphi )_{Omega}$-contractive mappings and we establish some fixed point results for this class of mappings in ordered complete $p$-metric spaces. Our results generalize several well...

On the topological equivalence of some generalized metric spaces

‎The aim of this paper is to establish the equivalence between the concepts‎ ‎of an $S$-metric space and a cone $S$-metric space using some topological‎ ‎approaches‎. ‎We introduce a new notion of a $TVS$-cone $S$-metric space using‎ ‎some facts about topological vector spaces‎. ‎We see that the known results on‎ ‎cone $S$-metric spaces (or $N$-cone metric spaces) can be directly obtained‎ from...

Completeness in Probabilistic Metric Spaces

The idea of probabilistic metric space was introduced by Menger and he showed that probabilistic metric spaces are generalizations of metric spaces. Thus, in this paper, we prove some of the important features and theorems and conclusions that are found in metric spaces. At the beginning of this paper, the distance distribution functions are proposed. These functions are essential in defining p...

Meir-Keeler Type Contraction Mappings in $c_0$-triangular Fuzzy Metric Spaces

Proving  fixed point theorem in a fuzzy metric space is not possible for  Meir-Keeler contractive mapping. For this, we introduce the notion of $c_0$-triangular fuzzy metric space. This new space allows us to prove some fixed point theorems for  Meir-Keeler contractive mapping. As some pattern we introduce the class of $alphaDelta$-Meir-Keeler contractive and we establish some results of fixed ...

On metric spaces induced by fuzzy metric spaces

For a class of fuzzy metric spaces (in the sense of George and Veeramani) with an H-type t-norm,  we present a method to construct a metric on a  fuzzy metric space. The induced metric space shares many important properties with the given fuzzy metric space.  Specifically, they generate the same topology, and have the same completeness. Our results can give the constructive proofs to some probl...
