Generic Properties of Compact Metric Spaces

Metric Geometry 2010-03-29 v1

Abstract

We prove that there is a residual subset of the Gromov-Hausdorff space (i.e. the space of all compact metric spaces up to isometry endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff distance) whose points enjoy several unexpected properties. In particular, they have zero lower box dimension and infinite upper box dimension.
