What is the difference between far and further? Investigations into such psychological distancing--removal from an egocentric reference point--have suggested similarities between geographical space, time, probability, and social distance. We draw on these similarities to propose that experiencing any kind of distance will reduce sensitivity to any other distance. Nine studies varied the initial...

We examine Euclidean plane domains with their hyperbolic or quasihyperbolic distance. prove that the associated metric spaces are quasisymmetrically equivalent if and only they bi-Lipschitz equivalent. On other hand, for Gromov domains, two corresponding boundaries always Surprisingly, any finitely connected domain, these quasiisometrically construct examples where not
