In this article, we present a new characterization of the completeness of a partial metric space--which we call \textit{orbital characterization}-- using fixed point results.

Ge and Lin (2015) proved the existence and the uniqueness of p-Cauchy completions of partial metric spaces under symmetric denseness. They asked if every (non-empty) partial metric space $X$ has a p-Cauchy completion $\bar{X}$ such that $X$…

We relate generic points in the shift locus $\mathcal{S}_D$ of degree $D\ge 2$ polynomials to metric graphs. Using thermodynamic metrics on the space of metric graphs, we obtain a distance function $\rho_D$ on $\mathcal{S}_D$. We study the…

In spacetime physics, we frequently need to consider a set of all spaces (`universes') as a whole. In particular, the concept of `closeness' between spaces is essential. However, there has been no established mathematical theory so far…

We study locally compact metric spaces that enjoy various forms of homogeneity with respect to M\"obius self-homeomorphisms. We investigate connections between such homogeneity and the combination of isometric homogeneity with…

As a continuation of \cite{NSY:local}, we mainly discuss the global structure of two-dimensional locally compact geodesically complete metric spaces with curvature bounded above. We first obtain the result on the Lipschitz homotopy…

Let $T$ be a compact, metrisable and strongly countable-dimensional topological space. Let $\mathcal{M}^T$ be the set of all metrics $d$ on $T$ compatible with its topology, and equip $\mathcal{M}^T$ with the topology of uniform…

In this paper, we introduce an asymmetric metric on the space of marked Euclidean triangles, and we prove several properties of this metric, including two equivalent definitions of this metric, one of them comparing ratios of functions of…

The problem of classifying boundary points of space-time, for example singularities, regular points and points at infinity, is an unexpectedly subtle one. Due to the fact that whether or not two boundary points are identified or even…

We investigate the interrelations between the metric properties, order properties and combinatorial properties of the set of balls in totally bounded ultrametric space. In particular, the Gurvich-Vyalyi representation of finite, ultrametric…

We show that, for a separable and complete metric space $M$, the Lipschitz-free space $\mathcal F(M)$ embeds linearly and almost-isometrically into $\ell_1$ if and only if $M$ is a subset of an $\mathbb R$-tree with length measure 0.…

Generalizing Culler and Vogtmann's Outer Space for the free group, Guirardel and Levitt construct an Outer Space for a free product of groups. We completely characterize when this space (or really its simplicial spine) supports an…

A new sequential approach to investigations of structure of metric spaces at infinity is proposed. Criteria for finiteness and boundedness of metric spaces at infinity are found.

Given a finite collection $\{X_i\}_{i\in I}$ of metric spaces, each of which has finite Nagata dimension and Lipschitz free space isomorphic to $L^1$, we prove that their union has Lipschitz free space isomorphic to $L^1$. The short proof…

We prove that if an n-dimensional geodesically complete CAT(0) space has Tits boundary sufficiently close to the (n-1)-dimensional standard unit sphere, then it is bi-Lipschiz homeomorphic to the n-dimensional Euclidean space. As an…

In ``Characterization, stability and convergence of hierarchical clustering methods'' by G. E. Carlsson, F. Memoli, the natural way to construct an ultrametric space from a given metric space was presented. It was shown that the…

We extend the notion of localic completion of generalised metric spaces by Steven Vickers to the setting of generalised uniform spaces. A generalised uniform space (gus) is a set X equipped with a family of generalised metrics on X, where a…

We show that in complete metric spaces, $4$-hyperconvexity is equivalent to finite hyperconvexity. Moreover, every complete, almost $n$-hyperconvex metric space is $n$-hyperconvex. This generalizes among others results of Lindenstrauss and…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be the field of real Puiseux series and $\mathcal{T}_\mathbb{F}$ the $\mathbb{Q}$-tree defined by Brumfiel. We show that completing all the segments of $\mathcal{T}_\mathbb{F}$ does not result in a complete metric space.

In this paper we study some results on common fixed points of families of mappings on metric spaces by imposing orbit Lipschitzian conditions on them. These orbit Lipschitzian conditions are weaker than asking the mappings to be…
