We introduce a type of surgery on metric spaces. This surgery, in some sense, seeks to replace a subspace $S$ of a metric space $X$ with another metric space $T$ via a function $f : S \to T$. When $T$ is a discrete space, this amounts to…

We define coarse proximity structures, which are an analog of small-scale proximity spaces in the large-scale context. We show that metric spaces induce coarse proximity structures, and we construct a natural small-scale proximity…

We investigate the class of geodesic metric discs satisfying a uniform quadratic isoperimetric inequality and uniform bounds on the length of the boundary circle. We show that the closure of this class as a subset of Gromov-Hausdorff space…

The set B of geodesic rays avoiding a suitable obstacle in a complete negatively curved Riemannian manifold determines a spectrum S. While various properties of this spectrum are known, we define and study dimension functions on S in terms…

There exists a completely metrizable bounded metrizable space $X$ with compatible metrics $d,d'$ so that the hyperspace $CL(X)$ of nonempty closed subsets of $X$ endowed with the Hausdorff metric $H_d$, $H_{d'}$, resp. is…

We research proximinality of $\mu$-sequentially compact sets and $\mu$-compact sets in measurable function spaces. Next we show a correspondence between the Kadec-Klee property for convergence in measure and $\mu$-compactness of the sets in…

If $X$ is a convex surface in a Euclidean space, then the squared intrinsic distance function $\dist^2(x,y)$ is DC (d.c., delta-convex) on $X\times X$ in the only natural extrinsic sense. An analogous result holds for the squared distance…

We say that a sequence of proper geodesic spaces $X_n$ consists of \textit{almost homogeneous spaces} if there is a sequence of discrete groups of isometries $G_n \leq \text{Iso}(X_n)$ with $\text{diam} (X_n/G_n)\to 0$ as $n \to \infty$. We…

In this short note, we show that, in any given metric space, every Lipschitz open-map image of every subset of a given metric space whose boundary is Hausdorff-null is Hausdorff-measurable with respect to the same dimension. The main…

We consider two natural topologies on the space $S(X\times Y,Z)$ of all separately continuous functions defined on the product of two topological spaces $X$ and $Y$ and ranged into a topological or metric space $X$. These topologies are the…

Motivated by the quest for an analogue of the Gromov-Hausdorff distance in noncommutative geometry which is well-behaved with respect to C*-algebraic structures, we propose a complete metric on the class of Leibniz quantum compact metric…

We obtain two in a sense dual to each other results: First, that the capacity dimension of every compact, locally self-similar metric space coincides with the topological dimension, and second, that the asymptotic dimension of a metric…

Any symmetric affinity function $w: V\times V \to \mathbb{R}_+$ defined on a discrete set $V$ induces Euclidean space structure on $V$. In particular, an undirected graph specified by an affinity (or adjacency) matrix can be considered as a…
