Hello there, I am asked to "give a geometric description of a $B(a;\,r)$" in some metric. The trouble is that I do not know what list of requirements a description has to satisfy to be a satisfactory "geometric description". Will you kindly give me the definition of «geometric description»? Thank you for your time. Kind regards, Marius
