A general definition of a linear connection in noncommutative geometry has been recently proposed. Two examples are given of linear connections in noncommutative geometries which are based on matrix algebras. They both possess a unique…
In 1992, Agache and Chaple introduced the concept of a semi-symmetric non-metric connection([1]). The semi-symmetric non-metric connection does not satisfy the Schur`s theorem. The purpose of the present paper is to study some properties of…
In this article we study the space of positive scalar curvature metrics on totally nonspin manifolds with spin boundary. We prove that for such manifolds of certain dimensions, those spaces are not connected and have nontrivial fundamental…
We consider the space of non-expansive mappings on a bounded, closed and convex subset of a Banach space equipped with the metric of uni- form convergence. We show that the set of strict contractions is a {\sigma}-porous subset.
Let f be a continuous map of a complete separable metric space E onto the irrationals. We show that if a complete separable metric space M contains isometric copies of every closed relatively discrete set in E, then M contains also an…
An isometric embedding of a graph into a metric space is an embedding of the vertices such that the smallest number of edges connecting any two vertices equals to the distance in the metric space between the images. In this paper, we study…
We provide an example of a trivalent, 3-connected graph G such that, for any choice of metric on G, the resulting metric graph is Brill-Noether special.
We study the geometry of a weak Riemannian metric on the infinite dimensional manifold of compact spacelike Cauchy hypersurfaces in a globally hyperbolic spacetime. We show that the geodesic distance (i.e. the infimum of lengths of paths…
Finite metric spaces arise in many different contexts. Enormous bodies of data, scientific, commercial and others can often be viewed as large metric spaces. It turns out that the metric of graphs reveals a lot of interesting information.…
The line generated by two distinct points, $x$ and $y$, in a finite metric space $M=(V,d)$, denoted by $\overline{xy}^M$, is the set of points given by $$\overline{xy}^M:=\{z\in V: d(x,y)=|d(x,z)\pm d(z,y)|\}.$$ A 2-set $\{x,y\}$ such that…
We describe all metric spaces that have sufficently many affine functions. As an application we obtain a metric characterization of linear-convex subsets of Banach spaces.
The deck of a topological space $X$ is the set $\mathcal{D}(X)=\{[X \setminus \{x\}] \colon x \in X\}$, where $[Z]$ denotes the homeomorphism class of $Z$. A space $X$ is topologically reconstructible if whenever…
We construct a ZFC example of a nonmetrizable compact space $K$ such that every totally disconnected closed subspace $L\subseteq K$ is metrizable. In fact, the construction can be arranged so that every nonmetrizable compact subspace may be…
Graphings are special bounded-degree graphs on probability spaces, representing limits of graph sequences that are convergent in a local or local-global sense. We describe a procedure for turning the underlying space into a compact metric…
Given a continuum $X$, let $C(X)$ be the hyperspace of all subcontinua of $X$. We consider the hyperspace $NC^{*}(X)=\{A\in C(X):X\setminus A$ is connected$\}$. In this paper we prove that the only locally connected continua $X$ for which…
We prove that any complete metric space has a unique decomposition as a direct product of a possibly finite or zero-dimensional Hilbert space and a space that does not split off lines.
In this paper we combine the notions of partial metric spaces with negative distances, $G_p$-metric spaces and n-metric spaces together into one structure called the partial n-metric spaces. These are generalizations of all the said…
The Reeb space of a continuous function is the space of connected components of the level sets. In this paper we first prove that the Reeb space of a smooth function on a closed manifold with finitely many critical values has the structure…
The maximal graph Dirichlet problem asks whether there exists a spacelike graph, in a semi-Euclidean space, with a given boundary and with mean curvature everywhere zero. We prove the existence of solutions to this problem under certain…
In this thesis, we study connections between metric and combinatorial graphs from a Dirichlet space point of view.
