Yes, but we're looking at a specific set of distance metrics. It'd be interested in the set where Pi(d) is constant and equal to Pi. (disclaimer: IANAM and I haven't given it much thought) | ||

This is certainly an interesting question; however, it's probably very hard. This is because the 'set of all possible metrics of the 2d plane' is extremely large, and I am not sure if we have a good characterization for it. There are a bunch of very strange metrics, e.g. a metric for which d(x,x) = 0, d(x,y)=1, that is, all points are at a distance of 1 to each other (this satisfies all axioms). | ||
