Discrete space — In topology, a discrete space is a particularly simple example of a topological space or similar structure, one in which the points are isolated from each other in a certain sense. Contents 1 Definitions 2 Properties 3 Uses … Wikipedia
Metric space — In mathematics, a metric space is a set where a notion of distance (called a metric) between elements of the set is defined. The metric space which most closely corresponds to our intuitive understanding of space is the 3 dimensional Euclidean… … Wikipedia

Metric (mathematics) — In mathematics, a metric or distance function is a function which defines a distance between elements of a set. A set with a metric is called a metric space. A metric induces a topology on a set but not all topologies can be generated by a metric … Wikipedia
metric space — Math. a space with a metric defined on it. [1925 30] * * * In mathematics, a set of objects equipped with a concept of distance. The objects can be thought of as points in space, with the distance between points given by a distance formula, such… … Universalium
Metric time — is the measure of time interval using the metric system, which defines the second as the base unit of time, and multiple and submultiple units formed with metric prefixes, such as kiloseconds and milliseconds. It does not define the time of day,… … Wikipedia
Metric dimension (graph theory) — In graph theory, the metric dimension of a graph G is the minimum number of vertices in a subset S of G such that all other vertices are uniquely determined by their distances to the vertices in S. Finding the metric dimension of a graph is an NP … Wikipedia
