Abstract. Rishivarman and Parthasarathy (2013) have constructed a map
from the direct product of two copies of the set of ordinary elliptic curves
with short Weierstrass equation over
to non-negative real numbers (plus infinity),
and they have claimed that the map is a metric.
In this paper we point out that the proof of the claim contains several flaws.
Even worse, we shall show that the map is not a metric.
