# Question 13116: The Metric Induced by a Fixed Named Norm [Return to catalogue page 66](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/questions/page/66/) [← Question derivation index](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/questions/) · [Original question batch](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/practice/batch-20261014-advance-20261027-r02-norm-induced-metric-foundations/#q-20261014-advance-20261027-r02-norm-induced-metric-0016) This teaching derivation has second-context AI mathematical and bilingual semantic review, limited to the model and assumptions stated in this question. It has no human review or new Lean proof and does not promote the original question or MKO to Canonical truth. R0025-13116 · q-20261014-advance-20261027-r02-norm-induced-metric-0016 ## Original question and givens Use one named, certified norm on a fixed real coordinate space: l1(v)=sum_i |v_i| or linfinity(v)=max_i |v_i|. Set d(x,y)=norm(x−y) on that same space. Its universal norm-axiom certificate establishes the metric axioms; finite distance samples do not. Do not infer that every metric comes from a norm, or claim completeness, compactness or an inner product. norm_name=linfinity, left=[3, -2, -4], right=[-3, 4, 1]. Give (norm_name,left,right,left−right,distance). - G001 — Use one named, certified norm on a fixed real coordinate space: l1(v)=sum_i |v_i| or linfinity(v)=max_i |v_i|.

Give (norm_name,left,right,left−right,distance). ## Definition and scope Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate. - [mko-norm-induced-metric](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/mko/mko-norm-induced-metric/) ## Step-by-step derivation S001 · calculationBefore requested distance difference coordinate0 := sub(3, -3) After requested distance difference coordinate0 = 6 Conditions: none Compute exactly from original roles and established intermediates,retaining coefficients,coordinates,order and signs.
