metric function
All other quantities that are of interest in geometry, such as the length of any given curve, or the angle at which two curves meet, can be computed from this metric function.
From the en.wikipedia.org
It is defined using a generic choice of Morse function and Riemannian metric.
From the en.wikipedia.org
In one version, you consider an initial value surface with some data and find the metric as a function of time.

In mathematics, a metric or distance function is a function which defines a distance between elements of a set.
From the en.wikipedia.org
In mathematics, a distance function or metric is a generalization of the concept of physical distance.
From the en.wikipedia.org
This distance function is called the Euclidean metric.
From the en.wikipedia.org
In metric topology, one can concretely define a distance function between two points, and thus metric spaces also have a topology, i.e. a certain structure of open sets defined on them.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Restricting the Euclidean distance function gives the irrationals the structure of a metric space.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Such a function is called an extended metric.
