In various areas of modern physics and in particular in quantum gravity or foundational space-time physics it is of great importance to be in the possession of a systematic procedure by which a macroscopic or continuum limit can be…

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 Urysohn universal metric space U is characterized up to isometry by the following properties: (1) U is complete and separable; (2) U contains an isometric copy of every separable metric space; (3) every isometry between two finite…

In this article we prove that the set of torsion-free groups acting by isometries on a hyperbolic metric space whose entropy is bounded above and with a compact quotient is finite. The number of such groups can be estimated in terms of the…

The goal of this paper is to study when uniform Roe algebras have certain $C^*$-algebraic properties in terms of the underlying space: in particular, we study properties like having stable rank one or real rank zero that are thought of as…

Coning off a collection of uniformly quasiconvex subsets of a Gromov hyperbolic space leaves a new space, called the cone-off. Kapovich and Rafi generalized work of Bowditch to show this space is still Gromov hyperbolic. We show that the…

In this article we prove some previously announced results about metric ultraproducts of finite simple groups. We show that any non-discrete metric ultraproduct of alternating or special linear groups is a geodesic metric space. For more…

Smocked spaces are a class of metric spaces which were introduced to generalize pulled thread spaces. We investigate convergence of these spaces, showing that if the underlying smocking sets converge in Hausdorff distance and satisfy local…

We introduce a geometric property complementary-finite asymptotic dimension (coas- dim). Similar with asymptotic dimension, we prove the corresponding coarse invariant theorem, union theorem and Hurewicz-type theorem.

We show that if a continuous self-map of a compact metric space is h-expansive and satisfies the shadowing property, then every non-empty uniformly rigid subset is zero-dimensional, and hence the set of periodic points is also…

In a previuos paper the author asked if there exists a one-dimensional space $X$ that is not almost zero-dimensional, such that the dimension of the hyperspace of compact subsets of $X$ is one-dimensional. In this short note we give…

We consider the proper class of all metric spaces endowed with the Gromov--Hausdorff distance. Its maximal subclasses, consisting of the spaces on finite distance from each other, we call clouds. Multiplying all distances in a metric space…

In this short note, we show that, in any given metric space, every Lipschitz open-map image of every subset of a given metric space whose boundary is Hausdorff-null is Hausdorff-measurable with respect to the same dimension. The main…
