We show that compact Riemannian manifolds, regarded as metric spaces with their global geodesic distance, cannot contain a number of rigid structures such as (a) arbitrarily large regular simplices or (b) arbitrarily long sequences of…
A metric space $X$ is {\em injective} if every non-expanding map $f:B\to X$ defined on a subspace $B$ of a metric space $A$ can be extended to a non-expanding map $\bar f:A\to X$. We prove that a metric space $X$ is a Lipschitz image of an…
It is known that if finite subsets of a locally finite metric space $M$ admit $C$-bilipschitz embeddings into $\ell_p$ $(1\le p\le \infty)$, then for every $\epsilon>0$, the space $M$ admits a $(C+\epsilon)$-bilipschitz embedding into…
We define the isoperimetric constant for any locally finite metric space and we study the property of having isoperimetric constant equal to zero. This property, called Small Neighborhood property, clearly extends amenability to any locally…
We show that there are uncountably many mutually non-isomorphic Lipschitz-free spaces over countable, complete, discrete metric spaces. Also there is a countable, complete, discrete metric space whose free space does not embed into the free…
We prove that not every metric space embeds coarsely into an Alexandrov space of nonpositive curvature. This answers a question of Gromov (1993) and is in contrast to the fact that any metric space embeds coarsely into an Alexandrov space…
The Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$ equipped with a sub-Riemannian metric is one of the most well known examples of a doubling metric space which does not admit a bi-Lipschitz embedding into any Euclidean space. In this paper we investigate…
The main purpose of the paper is to prove the following results: Let $A$ be a locally finite metric space whose finite subsets admit uniformly bilipschitz embeddings into a Banach space $X$. Then $A$ admits a bilipschitz embedding into $X$.…
We give sufficient conditions for a metric space to bilipschitz embed in L_1. In particular, if X is a length space and there is a Lipschitz map u:X--->R such that for every interval I in R, the connected components of the inverse image…
In this paper, we provide an infinite metric space $M$ such that the set $\mbox{SNA}(M)$ of strongly norm-attaining Lipschitz functions does not contain a subspace which is isometric to $c_0$. This answers a question posed by Antonio…
The main purpose of the paper is to find some expansion properties of locally finite metric spaces which do not embed coarsely into a Hilbert space. The obtained result is used to show that infinite locally finite graphs excluding a minor…
We show that there exists a strong uniform embedding from any proper metric space into any Banach space without cotype. Then we prove a result concerning the Lipschitz embedding of locally finite subsets of $\mathcal{L}_{p}$-spaces. We use…
An embeddability criterion for zero-dimensional metrizable topological spaces in zero-dimensional metrizable topological groups is given. A space which can be embedded as a closed subspace in a zero-dimensional metrizable group but is not…
A well-known class of questions asks the following: If $X$ and $Y$ are metric measure spaces and $f:X\rightarrow Y$ is a Lipschitz mapping whose image has positive measure, then must $f$ have large pieces on which it is bi-Lipschitz?…
In this paper we provide several \emph{metric universality} results. We exhibit for certain classes $\cC$ of metric spaces, families of metric spaces $(M_i, d_i)_{i\in I}$ which have the property that a metric space $(X,d_X)$ in $\cC$ is…
We characterize uniformly perfect, complete, doubling metric spaces which embed bi- Lipschitzly into Euclidean space. Our result applies in particular to spaces of Grushin type equipped with Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance. Hence we obtain…
The open question of what prevents a metric space with bounded geometry from being uniformly embeddable in Hilbert space is answered here for box spaces of residually finite groups. We prove that a box space does not contain a uniformly…
For every $p\in (0,\infty)$ we associate to every metric space $(X,d_X)$ a numerical invariant $\mathfrak{X}_p(X)\in [0,\infty]$ such that if $\mathfrak{X}_p(X)<\infty$ and a metric space $(Y,d_Y)$ admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into $X$…
A metric space $(M, d)$ is said to be universal for a class of metric spaces if all metric spaces in the class can be isometrically embedded into $(M, d)$. In this paper, for a metrizable space $Z$ possessing abundant subspaces, we first…
We combine Kirchheim's metric differentials with Cheeger charts in order to establish a non-embeddability principle for any collection $\mathcal C$ of Banach (or metric) spaces: if a metric measure space $X$ bi-Lipschitz embeds in some…
