When Are Impedance Choices Irrelevant? Equivalence Conditions for Hansen-Style Access Metrics
When Are Impedance Choices Irrelevant? Equivalence Conditions for Hansen-Style Access Metrics
Accessibility metrics often differ only by impedance. We prove when that choice is irrelevant, derive elasticities on a uniform plane, introduce a discrete decomposition, and give conditions for ranking stability.
