SUMMARY:Refinements of metrics (Wai Yan Pong\, CSUDH)
DESCRIPTION:I will talk about a few graph-theoretic metrics then introduce the concept of refinements on a class of functions that include all metrics. As a case study\, we will construct various refinements on the shortest-path distance. Consequently\, we obtain a few “better” versions of the Erdos number. In the course of our investigation\, we realized various construction of metrics can be unified under a rather natural concept that we called monotonic monoid norm. This is a joint work with Kayla Lock and Alex Wittmond.
