We consider the class of (possibly) infinite metric spaces with integer-valued totally split-decomposable metric and possessing an injective hull which has the structure of a polyhedral complex. For this class, we give a characterization…

For locally finite CAT(0) cube complexes it is known that they are injectively metrizable choosing the $l_\infty$-norm on each cube. In this paper we show that cube complexes which are injective with respect to this metric are always…

We study metric spaces that admit a conical bicombing and thus obey a weak form of non-positive curvature. Prime examples of such spaces are injective metric spaces. In this article we give a complete characterization of complete metric…

The tropical row span and column span of a real matrix are, from the polyhedral point of view, different objects living in different ambient spaces. These polytopes are known to be combinatorially isomorphic as polyhedral complexes; we…

Injective metric spaces, or absolute 1-Lipschitz retracts, share a number of properties with CAT(0) spaces. In the 1960es, J. R. Isbell showed that every metric space X has an injective hull E(X). Here it is proved that if X is the vertex…

This is an expository survey with two goals. 1) The primary goal is to discuss and highlight the impact of two recent influential ideas in geometric group theory. The first of which is the notion of an injective metric space which is a rich…

In 2007 H. Long-Guang and Z. Xian, [H. Long-Guang and Z. Xian, Cone Metric Spaces and Fixed Point Theorems of Contractive Mapping, J. Math. Anal. Appl., 322(2007), 1468-1476], generalized the concept of a metric space, by introducing cone…

Enflo constructed a countable metric space that may not be uniformly embedded into any metric space of positive generalized roundness. Dranishnikov, Gong, Lafforgue and Yu modified Enflo's example to construct a locally finite metric space…

We show that countable metric spaces always have quantum isometry groups, thus extending the class of metric spaces known to possess such universal quantum-group actions. Motivated by this existence problem we define and study the notion of…

As a generalization of Hausdorff's extension theorem of metrics, we prove an interpolation theorem of a family of metrics defined on closed subsets of metrizable spaces. As an application, we investigate typicality of subsets of moduli…

This paper introduces three sets of sufficient conditions, for generating bijective simplicial mappings of manifold meshes. A necessary condition for a simplicial mapping of a mesh to be injective is that it either maintains the orientation…

Working on doubling metric spaces, we construct generalised dyadic cubes adapting ultrametric structure. If the space is complete, then the existence of such cubes and the mass distribution principle lead into a simple proof for the…

For every simplicial complex X, we construct a locally CAT(0) cubical complex T_X, a cellular isometric involution i on T_X and a map t_X from T_X to X with the following properties: t_Xi = t_X; t_X is a homology isomorphism; the induced…

We give a general procedure for constructing metric spaces from systems of partitions. This generalises and provides analogues of Sageev's construction of dual CAT(0) cube complexes for the settings of hyperbolic and injective metric…

This book offers to study locally compact groups from the point of view of appropriate metrics that can be defined on them, in other words to study "Infinite groups as geometric objects", as Gromov writes it in the title of a famous…

We introduce the notion of coupled embeddability, defined for maps on products of topological spaces. We use known results for nonsingular biskew and bilinear maps to generate simple examples and nonexamples of coupled embeddings. We study…

The paper is devoted to a categorical study of the category of probabilistic metric spaces. The study is based on an isomorphic description of the category of probabilistic metric spaces. The isomorphic description was obtained in [3] and…

We investigate the Lyubeznik numbers, and the injective dimension of local cohomology modules, of finitely generated $\mathbb{Z}$-algebras. We prove that the mixed characteristic Lyubeznik numbers and the standard ones agree locally for…

Celebrated work of Alexandrov and Pogorelov determines exactly which metrics on the sphere are induced on the boundary of a compact convex subset of hyperbolic three-space. As a step toward a generalization for unbounded convex subsets, we…

Let $M$ be a compact oriented 3-manifold with non-empty boundary consisting of surfaces of genii $>1$ such that the interior of $M$ is hyperbolizable. We show that for each spherical cone-metric $d$ on $\partial M$ such that all cone-angles…
