Function valued metric spaces

Journal Title: Surveys in Mathematics and its Applications - Year 2010, Vol 5, Issue 0

Abstract

In this paper we introduce the notion of an ℱ-metric, as a function valued distance mapping, on a set X and we investigate the theory of ℱ-metrics paces. We show that every metric space may be viewed as an ℱ-metric space and every ℱ-metric space (X,δ) can be regarded as a topological space (X,τ<SUB>δ</SUB>). In addition, we prove that the category of the so-called extended ℱ-metric spaces properly contains the category of metric spaces. We also introduce the concept of an <FONT FACE="Symbol">`</FONT>ℱ-metric space as a completion of an ℱ-metric space and, as an application to topology, we prove that each normal topological space is <FONT FACE="Symbol">`</FONT>ℱ-metrizable.
