| contents | The existence of a median-type ternary operation on a metric space is known to have a number of implications for the geometry of the space. For such operations, if two of the three arguments coincide, they also coincide with the output of the operation. We consider ternary operations with the opposite property: if two of the arguments coincide, the output is equal to the third one. The existence of such an operation is a necessary condition for the space to be an absolute retract. |
