Quasi-Metric Trees And $Q$-Hyperconvex Hulls, Zechariah Mushaandja, Olivier Olela Otafudu
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
The investigation of metric trees began with J. Tits in 1977. Recently we studied a more general notion of quasi-metric tree. In the current article we prove, among other facts, that the $q$-hyperconvex hull of a $q$-hyperconvex $T_0$-quasi-metric tree is itself a $T_0$-quasi-metric tree. This is achieved without using the four-point property, a geometric concept used by Aksoy and Maurizi to show that every complete metric tree is hyperconvex.
