Abstract
We describe here several operations which permit to extend a given distance on V n to a distance on V n +1. Examples of such operations include the gate extension operation, the antipodal extension operation, the spherical extension operation, which are described, respectively, in Sections 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3. We also consider the direct product, the tensor product, and the 1-sum operations in Sections 7.5 and 7.6.
