Hausdorff metric on faces of the n-cube.

Ryabov G.G.

The Hausdorff metric on all faces of the unit n-cube (Iⁿ) is considered. The notion of a cubant is used; it was introduced as an n-digit quaternary code of a k-dimensional face containing the Cartesian product of k frame unit segments and the face translation code within Iⁿ. The cubants form a semigroup with a unit (monoid) with respect to the given operation of multiplication. A calculation of Hausdorff metric based on the generalization of the Hamming metric for binary codes is considered. The supercomputing issues are discussed.
