Reference request: a class of matrices leading to interesting metric geometry

For $0 \le A \in GL(n,\mathbb{R})$, let $Aw = \Delta(A)$, where $\Delta$ denotes the map taking a matrix to a vector of its diagonal entries and/or forming a diagonal matrix from a vector, according ...

Pointwise convergence in Lawvere metric spaces

In the formalism of Lawvere metric spaces, we have that the distance in the hom-space $[X,Y]$ is given by: $$ d(f,g) = \sup_{x\in X} d(f(x),g(x)) . $$ Therefore, a sequence of functions $f_n:X\to Y$ ...

Enriched Categories: Metric Spaces, Monoidal Endofunctors and Lipschitz-Continuous Maps.

In the introduction to the reprint of "Metric spaces, generalized logic and closed categories" Lawvere talks about the following situation: Let $\mathbb R_+$ denote $\mathbb R_{\geq 0}^\infty$. Every ...

Reference Request(Enriched Categories): Metric on Lipschitz Continuous Functions

If we consider metric spaces to be categories enriched over $\mathbb R_{\geq 0}$, the object corresponding to presheaves should be lipschitz-continuous functions $\operatorname{Lip^ 1}(M, \mathbb R_{\...
