Remarks on ultrametrics and metric-preserving functions. (English) Zbl 1440.54010

Summary: Functions whose composition with every metric is a metric are said to be metric-preserving. In this paper, we investigate a variation of the concept of metric-preserving functions where metrics are replaced by ultrametrics.
