In the seminal work of Balogh-Buckley [Invent. Math. 2003], the authors asked the following fundamental open problem: for proper subdomains in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, does the ball separation condition alone imply the…
In this paper, we introduce the concepts of short arc and length map in quasihyperbolic metric spaces, and obtain some geometric characterizations of Gromov hyperbolicity for quasihyperbolic metric spaces in terms of the properties of short…
In this note, we present examples of non-quasi-geodesic metric spaces which are hyperbolic (i.e., satisfying the Gromov's $4$-point condition) while the intersection of any two metric balls therein does not either "look like" a ball or has…
We show that every quasihyperbolic geodesic in a John space admitting a roughly starlike Gromov hyperbolic quasihyperbolization is a cone arc. This result provides a new approach to the elementary metric geometry question, formulated in…
We show that a geodesic metric space is hyperbolic in the sense of Gromov if and only if intersections of balls have bounded eccentricity. In particular, $\R$-trees are characterized among geodesic metric spaces by the property that the…
By a geodesic subspace of a metric space $X$ we mean a subset $A$ of $X$ such that any two points in $A$ can be connected by a geodesic in $A$. It is easy to check that a geodesic metric space $X$ is an $\mathbb{R}$-tree (that is, a…
Let $\Gamma$ be a non-elementary Gromov-hyperbolic group, and $\partial \Gamma$ denote its Gromov boundary. We consider $\Gamma$-invariant proper $\delta$-hyperbolic, quasi-convex metric $d$ on $\Gamma$, and the associated…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of quasihyperbolically visible spaces. As a tool, we study the connection between the Gromov boundary and the metric boundary.
In this paper, we investigate Gromov hyperbolizations of unbounded locally complete and incomplete metric spaces associated with three hyperbolic type metrics: the hyperbolization metric introduced by Ibragimov, the distance ratio metric,…
In this paper we introduce a notion of the Gromov-Hausdorff distance with boundary, denoted by $d_{GHB}$, to construct a framework of convergence of noncomplete metric spaces. We show that a class of bounded $A$-uniform spaces with diameter…
In a recent work of Zhou and Ponnusamy [Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Ci. Sci. 2025], the authors studied the following natural question: find sufficient and necessary conditions for a domain $\Omega$ in a metric space $X$ to be…
We study in the setting of a metric space $\left( X,d\right) $ some generalizations of four hyperbolic-type metrics defined on open sets $G$ with nonempty boundary in the $n-$dimensional Euclidean space, namely Gehring-Osgood metric,…
The concept of Gromov hyperbolicity manifests itself in many different ways. With only mild assumptions on the underlying metric space, the spectrum of equivalent properties includes various thin triangle conditions, the stability of…
We characterise hyperbolic groups in terms of quasigeodesics in the Cayley graph forming regular languages. We also obtain a quantitative characterisation of hyperbolicity of geodesic metric spaces by the non-existence of certain local…
This is a tale describing the large scale geometry of Euclidean plane domains with their hyperbolic or quasihyperbolic distances. We prove that in any hyperbolic plane domain, hyperbolic and quasihyperbolic quasi-geodesics are the same…
This is the first article of a series of our recent works, addressing an open question of Bonk-Heinonen-Koskela [5], to study the relationship between (inner) uniformality and Gromov hyperbolicity in infinite dimensional spaces. Our main…
In this paper, we study the characterization of inner uniformity of bounded domains $G$ in $\IR^n$, and prove that the following three conditions are equivalent: $(1)$ $G$ is inner uniform; $(2)$ $G$ is Gromov hyperbolic and its inner…
Although the hyperbolic metric possesses many remarkable properties, it is not defined on arbitrary subdomains of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $n \geq 2$. This article introduces a new hyperbolic-type metric that provides an alternative approach to…
In this paper, we introduce a concept of quasihyperbolic John spaces and provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a space to be quasihyperbolic John. Using this criteria, we exhibit a simple proof to show that a John space with a…
In this paper we establish Gehring-Hayman type theorems for some complex domains. Suppose that $\Omega\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ is a bounded $m$-convex domain with Dini-smooth boundary, or a bounded strongly pseudoconvex domain with…
