In a real locally convex Hausdorff space the closed convex hull of every metrizable compact set is compact if (and only if) every continuous curve has a Pettis integral with respect to Lebesgue measure. For such spaces there is a natural…

We investigate the Tits boundary of locally compact CAT(0) 2-complexes. In particular we show that away from the endpoints, a geodesic segment in the Tits boundary is the ideal boundary of an isometrically embedded Euclidean sector. As…

In this article we study the asymptotically rigid mapping class groups of infinitely-punctured surfaces obtained by thickening planar trees. We present a family of CAT(0) cube complexes on which the latter groups act. Along the way, we…

A compact quantum metric space is a unital $C^*$-algebra equipped with a Lip-norm. Let $\{(A_n, L_n)\}$ be a sequence of compact quantum metric spaces, and let $\phi_n:A_n\to A_{n+1}$ be a unital $^*$-homomorphism preserving Lipschitz…

We describe a correspondence between spaces with walls and CAT(0) cube complexes.

We investigate certain geometric properties of the spaces of idempotent measures. In particular, we prove that the space of idempotent measures on an infinite compact metric space is homeomorphic to the Hilbert cube.

Consider the semialgebraic structure over the real field. More generally, let an ominimal structure be over a real closed field. We show that a definable metric space X with a definable metric d is embedded into a Euclidean space so that…

We study topological median algebra structures on Euclidean spaces and, more generally, ER homology manifolds. We show that all such median structures have a local CAT(0) cubulation structure. We also show that topological median algebra…

We investigate the space of Hermitian metrics on a fixed complex vector bundle. This infinite-dimensional space has appeared in the study of Hermitian-Einstein structures, where a special L2-type Riemannian metric is introduced. We compute…

We say that a finite metric space $X$ can be embedded almost isometrically into a class of metric spaces $C$, if for every $\epsilon > 0$ there exists an embedding of $X$ into one of the elements of $C$ with the bi-Lipschitz distortion less…

We introduce the notion of admissible injective envelope for a locally C*-algebra and show that each object in the category whose objects are unital Fr\'{e}chet locally C*-algebras and whose morphisms are unital admissible local completely…

We study rigidity properties of lattices in terms of invariant means and commensurating actions (or actions on CAT(0) cube complexes). We notably study Property FM for groups, namely that any action on a discrete set with an invariant mean…

We compare the marked length spectra of some pairs of proper and cocompact cubical actions of a non-virtually cyclic group on $\text{CAT}(0)$ cube complexes. The cubulations are required to be virtually co-special, have the same sets of…

For a family $\mathcal{C}$ of properly embedded curves in the 2-dimensional disk $\mathbb{D}^{2}$ satisfying certain uniqueness properties, we consider convex polygons $P\subset \mathbb{D}^{2}$ and define a metric $d$ on $P$ such that…

Labourie and the author independently showed that a convex real projective structure on an oriented surface of genus at least 2 is equivalent to a conformal structure plus a holomorphic cubic differential U. We analyze the behavior of the…

In this paper, we study the capacity dimension of the boundary of $CAT(0)$ spaces. We first compare the two metrics on the boundary of a hyperbolic $CAT(0)$ space, i.e., the visual metric and the conical metric, and prove that they give the…

We give concrete, "infinitesimal" conditions for a proper geodesically complete CAT(0) space to have semistable fundamental group at infinity.

We prove the existence of a quantum isometry groups for new classes of metric spaces: (i) geodesic metrics for compact connected Riemannian manifolds (possibly with boundary) and (ii) metric spaces admitting a uniformly distributed…

Quadric complexes are square complexes satisfying a certain combinatorial nonpositive curvature condition. These complexes generalize 2-dimensional CAT(0) cube complexes and are a square analog of systolic complexes. We introduce and study…

A generalization of the Lebesgue number lemma is obtained. It is proved that, if each countably infinite locally finite open cover of a chainable metric space $X$ has a Lebesgue number, then $X$ is totally bounded. A property of metric…
