The Gromov--Hausdorff distance measures the difference in shape between metric spaces and poses a notoriously difficult problem in combinatorial optimization. We introduce its quadratic relaxation over a convex polytope whose solutions…

In this paper, we first evaluate topological distributions of the sets of all doubling spaces, all uniformly disconnected spaces, and all uniformly perfect spaces in the space of all isometry classes of compact metric spaces equipped with…

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…

We prove that the Gromov-Hausdorff distance from the circle with its geodesic metric to any simply connected geodesic space is never smaller than $\frac{\pi}{4}$. We also prove that this bound is tight through the construction of a simply…

We establish a Ross-Witt Nystr\"om correspondence for weak geodesic lines in the (completed) space of K\"ahler metrics. We construct a wide range of weak geodesic lines on arbitrary projective K\"ahler manifolds that are not generated by…

We consider the topological and geometric reconstruction of a geodesic subspace of $\mathbb{R}^N$ both from the \v{C}ech and Vietoris-Rips filtrations on a finite, Hausdorff-close, Euclidean sample. Our reconstruction technique leverages…

In this paper geometry of Gromov-Hausdorff distance on the class of all metric spaces considered up to an isometry is investigated. For this class continuous curves and their lengths are defined, and it is shown that the Gromov-Hausdorff…

We find geodesics, shortest arcs, cut loci, first conjugate loci, distances between arbitrary elements for some left-invariant sub-Riemannian metrics on the Lie groups $SU(2)\times\mathbb{R}$ and $SO(3)\times\mathbb{R}$.

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…

It is shown that any bounded metric space can be isometrically embedded into the Gromov--Hausdorff metric class GH. This result is a consequence of local geometry description of the class GH in a sufficiently small neighborhood of a generic…

We construct a class of Finsler metrics in three-dimensional space such that all their geodesics are lines, but not all planes are extremal for their Hausdorff area functionals. This shows that if the Hausdorff measure is used as notion of…

The Gromov-Hausdorff (GH) distance is a natural way to measure distance between two metric spaces. We prove that it is $\mathrm{NP}$-hard to approximate the Gromov-Hausdorff distance better than a factor of $3$ for geodesic metrics on a…

We consider the space of geodesic laminations on a surface, endowed with the Hausdorff metric d_H and with a variation of this metric called the d_log metric. We compute and/or estimate the Hausdorff dimensions of these two metrics. We also…

It is shown that each finite family of finite metric spaces, being considered as a subset of Gromov--Hausdorff space, can be connected by a Steiner minimal tree.

In this survey article we gather classical as well as recent results on minimal geodesics of Riemannian or Finsler metrics, giving special attention to the two-dimensional case. Moreover, we present open problems together with some first…

In the present paper a distinguishability of bounded metric spaces by the set of the Gromov--Hausdorff distances to so-called simplexes (metric spaces with unique non-zero distance) is investigated. It is easy to construct an example of…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a reproducing kernel Hilbert space of functions on a set $X$. We study the problem of finding a minimal geodesic of the Grassmann manifold of $\mathcal{H}$ that joins two subspaces consisting of functions which vanish…

We develop a matricial version of Rieffel's Gromov-Hausdorff distance for compact quantum metric spaces within the setting of operator systems and unital C*-algebras. Our approach yields a metric space of ``isometric'' unital complete order…

We continue our investigation of the space of geodesic laminations on a surface, endowed with the Hausdorff topology. We determine the topology of this space for the once-punctured torus and the 4-times-punctured sphere. For these two…

In this paper we study half-geodesics, those closed geodesics that minimize on any subinterval of length $l(\gamma)/2$. For each nonnegative integer $n$, we construct Riemannian manifolds diffeomorphic to $S^2$ admitting exactly $n$…
