This paper is the first of three in which I study the moduli space of isometry classes of (compact) globally hyperbolic spacetimes (with boundary). I introduce a notion of Gromov-Hausdorff distance which makes this moduli space into a…
We study the properties of topological spaces $(X,\tau)$, where $X$ is a definable set in an o-minimal structure and the topology $\tau$ on $X$ has a basis that is (uniformly) definable. Examples of such spaces include the canonical…
Consider a measurable space with a finite vector measure. This measure defines a mapping of the $\sigma$-field into a Euclidean space. According to Lyapunov's convexity theorem, the range of this mapping is compact and, if the measure is…
This paper discusses the properties of the spaces of fuzzy sets in a metric space with $L_p$-type $d_p$ metrics, $p\geq 1$. The $d_p$ metrics are well-defined if and only if the corresponding Haudorff distance functions are measurable. In…
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…
We research proximinality of $\mu$-sequentially compact sets and $\mu$-compact sets in measurable function spaces. Next we show a correspondence between the Kadec-Klee property for convergence in measure and $\mu$-compactness of the sets in…
We construct a continuum of non-homeomorphic compact subspaces of the real line R without singleton components. Thus from the purely topological point of view the real line contains not only more closed sets than open sets but also more…
We study the subsets of metric spaces that are negligible for the infimal length of connecting curves; such sets are called metrically removable. In particular, we show that every totally disconnected set with finite Hausdorff measure of…
We prove that each metrizable space (of cardinality less or equal to continuum) has a (first countable) uniform Eberlein compactification and each scattered metrizable space has a scattered hereditarily paracompact compactification. Each…
We prove that in a Euclidean space of dimension at least two, there exists a compact set of Lebesgue measure zero such that any real-valued Lipschitz function defined on the space is differentiable at some point in the set. Such a set is…
For a given connected set $\Gamma$ in $d-$dimensional Euclidean space, we construct a connected set $\tilde\Gamma\supset \Gamma$ such that the two sets have comparable Hausdorff length, and the set $\tilde\Gamma$ has the property that it is…
For a convergent series with positive terms, we prove that the $\ell^\infty$ product space of bounded subspaces of the Gromov-Hausdorff space can be isometrically embedded into the Gromov-Hausdorff space, where each subspace consists of…
In this work we investigate Gromov-Hausdorff limits of compact surfaces carrying length metrics. More precisely, we consider the case where all surfaces have the same Euler characteristic. We give a complete description of the limit spaces…
We say that a metric graph is uniformly bounded if the degrees of all vertices are uniformly bounded and the lengths of edges are pinched between two positive constants; a metric space is approximable by a uniform graph if there is one…
The geometric tangent cone to a probability measure $\mu$ is a set of measure-valued applications that are almost geodesics. This is a nonlocal condition, typically lost when conditioning the measure on a given set. We show that if one…
Suppose G is a topological group containing a (closed) topological copy of the Frechet-Urysohn fan. If G is a perfectly normal sequential space (a normal k-space) then every closed metrizable subset in $G$ is locally compact. Applying this…
We study the geometry of germs of definable (semialgebraic or subanalytic) sets over a $p$-adic field from the metric, differential and measure geometric point of view. We prove that the local density of such sets at each of their points…
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…
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 give a short proof that any non-zero Euclidean space has a compact subset of Hausdorff dimension one that contains a differentiability point of every real-valued Lipschitz function defined on the space.
