Abstract

Finite quasi semimetrics on n can be thought of as nonnegative valuations on the edges of a complete directed graph on n vertices satisfying all possible triangle inequalities. They comprise a polyhedral cone whose symmetry groups were studied for small n by Deza, Dutour and Panteleeva. We show that the symmetry and combinatorial symmetry groups are as they conjectured.Integral quasi semimetrics have a special place in the theory of tiled orders, being known as exponent matrices, and can be viewed as monoids under componentwise maximum; we provide a novel derivation of the automorphism group of that monoid. Some of these results follow from more general consideration of polyhedral cones that are closed under componentwise maximum.
