Let $G$ be a finite, connected metric graph and let $X\subseteq G$ be a subset. If $X$ is sufficiently dense in $G$, we show that the Gromov--Hausdorff distance matches the Hausdorff distance, namely $d_\gh(G,X)=d_\h(G,X)$. When the metric…

One of the most beautiful notions of metric geometry is the Gromov-Hausdorff distance which measures the difference between two metric spaces. To define the distance, let us isometrically embed these spaces into various metric spaces and…

The Gromov-Hausdorff (GH) distance is traditionally used for measuring distances between metric spaces. It is defined as the minimal distortion of embedding one surface into the other, while the optimal correspondence can be described as…

Due to hybridization events in evolution, studying two different genes of a set of species may yield two related but different phylogenetic trees for the set of species. In this case, we want to measure the dissimilarity of the two trees.…

The Gromov-Hausdorff distance between two metric spaces measures how far the spaces are from being isometric. It has played an important and longstanding role in geometry and shape comparison. More recently, it has been discovered that the…

We calculate the Gromov--Hausdorff distance between a line segment and a circle in the Euclidean plane. To do that, we introduced a few new notions like round spaces and nonlinearity degree of a metric space.
