Popis: Metric spaces are inevitably Hausdorff and so cannot, for example, be used to study non-Hausdorff topologies such as those required in the Tarskian approach to programming language semantics. This paper presents a symmetric generalised metric for such topologies, an approach which sheds new light on how metric tools such as Banach's Theorem can be extended to non-Hausdorff topologies.
