As a continuation of \cite{NSY:local}, we mainly discuss the global structure of two-dimensional locally compact geodesically complete metric spaces with curvature bounded above. We first obtain the result on the Lipschitz homotopy…
Let $M=G/H$ be a compact connected isotropy irreducible Riemannian homogeneous manifold, where $G$ is a compact Lie group (may be, disconnected) acting on $M$ by isometries. This class includes all compact irreducible Riemannian symmetric…
We consider parallel submanifolds $M$ of a Riemannian symmetric space $N$ and study the question whether $M$ is extrinsically homogeneous in $N$\,, i.e.\ whether there exists a subgroup of the isometry group of $N$ which acts transitively…
Commability is the finest equivalence relation between locally compact groups such that $G$ and $H$ are equivalent whenever there is a continuous proper homomorphism $G \to H$ with cocompact image. Answering a question of Cornulier, we show…
We formalize the notion of limit of an inverse system of metric spaces with $1$-Lipschitz projections having unbounded fibers. The purpose is to use sub-Riemannian groups for metrizing the space of signatures of rectifiable paths in…
We describe the class of graphs for which all metric spaces with diametrical graphs belonging to this class are ultrametric. It is shown that a metric space $(X, d)$ is ultrametric iff the diametrical graph of the metric $d_{\varepsilon}(x,…
We show that, for a separable and complete metric space $M$, the Lipschitz-free space $\mathcal F(M)$ embeds linearly and almost-isometrically into $\ell_1$ if and only if $M$ is a subset of an $\mathbb R$-tree with length measure 0.…
We show that Haar measures of connected semisimple groups, embedded via a representation into a matrix space, have a homogeneous asymptotic limit when viewed from far away and appropriately rescaled. This is still true if the Haar measure…
On a smooth connected manifold, we consider all possible locally elliptic and locally bounded measurable coefficient Riemannian metrics called rough Riemannian metrics. We equip this set with an extended metric which is connected if and…
Metric embeddings are central to metric theory and its applications. Here we consider embeddings of a different sort: maps from a set to subsets of a metric space so that distances between points are approximated by minimal distances…
The main result of this article is: THEOREM. Every homogeneous locally conical connected separable metric space that is not a $1$-manifold is strongly $n$-homogeneous for each $n \geq 2$ and countable dense homogeneous. Furthermore,…
We define a simple criterion for a homogeneous, complete metric structure $X$ that implies that the automorphism group $\mbox{Aut}(X)$ satisfies all the main consequences of the existence of ample generics: it has the small index property,…
Suppose that there exists a discrete subset $X$ of a complete, connected, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ such that the Riemannian distances between points of $X$ correspond to the Euclidean distances of a net in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$.…
We present some explicit constructions of universal R-trees with applications to the asymptotic geometry of hyperbolic spaces. In particular, we show that any asymptotic cone of a complete simply connected manifold of negative curvature is…
Let M be a compact, connected and simply-connected Riemannian manifold, and suppose that G is a compact, connected Lie group acting on M by isometries. The dimension of the space of orbits is called the cohomogeneity of the action. If the…
In this paper we provide several \emph{metric universality} results. We exhibit for certain classes $\cC$ of metric spaces, families of metric spaces $(M_i, d_i)_{i\in I}$ which have the property that a metric space $(X,d_X)$ in $\cC$ is…
An ultrametric topology formalizes the notion of hierarchical structure. An ultrametric embedding, referred to here as ultrametricity, is implied by a natural hierarchical embedding. Such hierarchical structure can be global in the data…
We consider homogeneous spaces of Lie groups with compact stabilizer subgroups of two types: those with integrable invariant distributions and those with geodesic orbit invariant Riemannian metrics. The latter means that for an arbitrary…
We consider groups $\mathbb{I}$ of isometries of ultrametric Urysohn spaces $\mathbb{U}$. Such spaces $\mathbb{U}$ admit transparent realizations as boundaries of certain $R$-trees and the groups $\mathbb{I}$ are groups of automorphisms of…
In spacetime physics, we frequently need to consider a set of all spaces (`universes') as a whole. In particular, the concept of `closeness' between spaces is essential. However, there has been no established mathematical theory so far…
