Category:Distance Function
This category contains results about Distance Function.
Definitions specific to this category can be found in Definitions/Distance Function.
Real Numbers
Let $S, T$ be a subsets of the set of real numbers $\R$.
Let $x \in \R$ be a real number.
The distance between $x$ and $S$ is defined and annotated $\ds \map d {x, S} = \map {\inf_{y \mathop \in S} } {\map d {x, y} }$, where $\map d {x, y}$ is the distance between $x$ and $y$.
The distance between $S$ and $T$ is defined and annotated $\ds \map d {S, T} = \map {\inf_{\substack {x \mathop \in S \\ y \mathop \in T} } } {\map d {x, y} }$.
Metric Spaces
Let $M = \struct {A, d}$ be a metric space.
Let $x \in A$.
Let $S, T$ be subsets of $A$.
The distance between $x$ and $S$ is defined and annotated $\ds \map d {x, S} = \inf_{y \mathop \in S} \paren {\map d {x, y} }$.
The distance between $S$ and $T$ is defined and annotated $\ds \map d {S, T} = \inf_{\substack {x \mathop \in S \\ y \mathop \in T} } \paren {\map d {x, y} }$.
