This thesis is devoted to the study of Lie bialgebra and Hopf algebra structures related to certain versions of non-commutative geometry constructed on infinite-dimensional Lie algebras that arise in the context of asymptotic symmetries of…

We give a detailed description of the possible limits in the equivariant-Gromov-Hausdorff sense of sequences $(X_j,G_j)$, where the $X_j$'s are proper, geodesically complete, uniformly packed, CAT$(0)$-spaces and the $G_j$'s are closed,…

In this note we show that the Lipschitz distance between the classes of metric spaces at finite Gromov-Hausdorff distances from the one-point metric space and the real line with the natural metric, respectively, is positive.

We first prove that for all compact metrizable spaces, there exists a topological embedding of the compact metrizable space into each of the sets of compact metric spaces which are connected, path-connected, geodesic, or CAT(0), in the…

We show that Bunce-Deddens algebras, which are AT-algebras, are also limits of circle algebras for Rieffel's quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance, and moreover, form a continuous family indexed by the Baire space. To this end, we endow…

We introduce irreducible correspondences that enables us to calculate the Gromov--Hausdorff distances effectively. By means of these correspondences, we show that the set of all metric spaces each consisting of no more than $3$ points is…

It is shown that for any two compact metric spaces there exists an "optimal" correspondence which the Gromov-Hausdorff distance is attained at. Each such correspondence generates isometric embeddings of these spaces into a compact metric…

In [arXiv:1411.3592] an extension of the Ashtekar-Lewandowski (AL) state space of Loop Quantum Gravity was set up with the help a projective formalism introduced by Kijowski [Kijowski 1977; see also: arXiv:1304.6330, arXiv:1411.3590]. The…

We investigate the quantum structure of spacetime at fundamental scales via a novel, Lorentz-invariant noncommutative coordinate framework. Building on insights from noncommutative geometry, spectral theory, and algebraic quantum field…

It is shown that any bounded metric space can be isometrically embedded into the Gromov--Hausdorff metric class GH. This result is a consequence of local geometry description of the class GH in a sufficiently small neighborhood of a generic…

This is a self-contained introduction to quantum Riemannian geometry based on quantum groups as frame groups, and its proposed role in quantum gravity. Much of the article is about the generalisation of classical Riemannian geometry that…

In this paper, as a continuation of [30], we consider the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence and collapsing in the family of compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary satisfying lower bounds on the sectional curvatures of interior manifolds,…

In this paper, we discuss the embeddability of subspaces of the Gromov-Hausdorff space, which consists of isometry classes of compact metric spaces endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff distance, into Hilbert spaces. These embeddings are…

We investigate the relationship between the metric boundary and the Gromov boundary of a hyperbolic metric space. We show that the Gromov boundary is a quotient topological space of the metric boundary, and that therefore a word-hyperbolic…

We explore the extension of quantum cosmology outside the homogeneous approximation, using the formalism of loop quantum gravity. We introduce a model where some of the inhomogeneous degrees of freedom are present, providing a tool for…

M. Gromov introduced the Lipschitz order relation on the set of metric measure spaces and developed a rich theory. In particular, he claimed that an isoperimetric inequality on a non-discrete space is represented by using the Lipschitz…

The first author and Latr\'emoli\`ere had introduced a quantum metric (in the sense of Rieffel) on the algebra of complex-valued continuous functions on the Cantor space. We show that this quantum metric is distinct from the quantum metric…

A C*-metric algebra consists of a unital C*-algebra and a Leibniz Lip-norm on the C*-algebra. We show that if the Lip-norms concerned are lower semicontinuous, then any unital *-homomorphism from a C*-metric algebra to another one is…

We show continuity under equivariant Gromov-Hausdorff convergence of the critical exponent of discrete, non-elementary, torsion-free, quasiconvex-cocompact groups with uniformly bounded codiameter acting on uniformly Gromov-hyperbolic…

We explain how quantum gravity can be defined by quantizing spacetime itself. A pinpoint is that the gravitational constant G = L_P^2 whose physical dimension is of (length)^2 in natural unit introduces a symplectic structure of spacetime…
