38th International Symposium on Multiple Valued Logic (ismvl 2008)
Betweenness, Metrics and Entropies in Lattices
May 22-May 24
ISBN: 978-0-7695-3155-7
We investigate a class of metrics on lattices that are compatible with the partial order defined by the lattice using the ternary relation of betweenness that can be naturally defined on a metric space.??Therelationships between entropy-like functions and metrics defined on lattices are studied and we show the links that exists between various properties of entropies and properties of metrics.??Applications tometrics defined on the lattice of partitions of finite sets are examined.
Index Terms:
compatible metric, sub-modularity, modular lattices
