We introduce a new class of zero-dimensional weighted complete intersections, by abstracting the essential features of rational cohomology algebras of equal rank homogeneous spaces of compact connected Lie groups. We prove that, on a…
In this paper, we try to generalize to the case of compact Riemannian orbifolds $Q$ some classical results about the existence of closed geodesics of positive length on compact Riemannian manifolds $M$. We shall also consider the problem of…
We introduce the notion of timed-Gromov--Hausdorff distance for timed-metric spaces. We prove that this distance is bi-Lipschitz equivalent to the intrinsic timed-Hausdorff distance of Sakovich--Sormani, and therefore induces the same…
Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. We show that $M$ is Gromov-Hausdorff close to a convex Euclidean region $D$ of the same dimension if the boundary distance function of $M$ is $C^1$-close to that of $D$. More…
This note is devoted to proving the following result: given a compact metrizable group G, there is a compact metric space K such that G is isomorphic (as a topological group) to the isometry group of K.
The paper studies the class of all metric spaces considered up to zero Gromov-Hausdorff distance between them. In this class, we examine clouds - classes of spaces situated at finite Gromov-Hausdorff distances from a reference space. We…
In this work we study the geodesic structure of the space $\Sigma (X)$ of compact balls of a complete and locally compact metric length space endowed with the Hausdorff distance $d_H$. In particular, we focus on a geometric condition…
We show that uniform lattices of isometries of products of real hyperbolic spaces act properly discontinuously and cocompactly on a median space. For lattices in products of at least two factors, this is the strongest degree of…
Botelho, Jamison, and Moln\'ar \cite{BJM}, and Geh\' er and \v{S}emrl \cite{GeS} have recently described the general form of surjective isometries of Grassmann spaces of all projections of a fixed finite rank on a Hilbert space $H$. As a…
A quantized metric space is a matrix order unit space equipped with an operator space version of Rieffel's Lip-norm. We develop for quantized metric spaces an operator space version of quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance. We show that two…
The paper is devoted to the study of geodesic orbit Riemannian spaces that could be characterize by the property that any geodesic is an orbit of a 1-parameter group of isometries. In particular, we discuss some important totally geodesic…
We investigate homogeneous geodesics in a class of homogeneous spaces called $M$-spaces, which are defined as follows. Let $G/K$ be a generalized flag manifold with $K=C(S)=S\times K_1$, where $S$ is a torus in a compact simple Lie group…
We survey some recent results and open questions on the approaching geodesics property and its application to the study of the Gromov and horofunction compactifications of a proper geodesic Gromov metric space. We obtain results on the…
Fix a smooth closed manifold $M$. Let $R_M$ denote the space of all pairs $(g,L)$ such that $g$ is a $C^3$ Riemannian metric on $M$ and the real number $L$ is not the length of any closed $g$-geodesics. A locally constant geodesic count…
The Gromov-Hausdorff distance $(d_{GH})$ proves to be a useful distance measure between shapes. In order to approximate $d_{GH}$ for compact subsets $X,Y\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, we look into its relationship with $d_{H,iso}$, the infimum…
In this paper we prove that the Gromov--Hausdorff distance between $\mathbb{R}^n$ and its subset $A$ is finite if and only if $A$ is an $\varepsilon$-net in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for some $\varepsilon>0$. For infinite-dimensional Euclidean spaces…
Given a compact orientable surface with finitely many punctures $\Sigma$, let $\Cal S(\Sigma)$ be the set of isotopy classes of essential unoriented simple closed curves in $\Sigma$. We determine a complete set of relations for a function…
We present a new general framework for metrization of Gromov-Hausdorff-type topologies on non-compact metric spaces. We also give easy-to-check conditions for separability and completeness and hence the measure theoretic requirements are…
Focus of this study is to explore some aspects of mathematical foundations for using complex manifolds as a model for space-time. More specifically, certain equations of motions have been derived as a Projective geodesic on a real manifold…
In this paper, we focus on homogeneous spaces which are constructed from two strongly isotropy irreducible spaces, and prove that any geodesic orbit metric on these spaces is naturally reductive.
