Metric Spaces (𝑋,𝑑)

Metric Space - Examples

  1. All normed vector spaces are metric spaces
  2. Euclidean Vector Space (ℝ𝑛) with Euclidean Distance Metric (𝑑). (ℝ𝑛,𝑑) forms a metric space.
    1. Real Numbers (ℝ) with Absolute Distance Metric (𝑑(𝑥,𝑦) = |𝑦-𝑥|). (ℝ,𝑑) forms a metric space.
  3. Let 𝐺(𝑉,𝐸,𝑊) be a simple, weighted, undirected graph; with distance metric (𝑑) defined as the shortest path function 𝑑:𝑉×𝑉→ℝ+ (i.e. the length of the shortest path between any two vertices). (𝐺,𝑑) forms a metric space.
