Let $X$ be a finite metric space with elements $P_i$, $i=1,\dots,n$ and with distance functions $d_{ij}$. The Gromov product of the triangle with vertices $P_i$, $P_j$ and $P_k$ at the vertex $P_i$ is defined by…
Permutation invariant polynomial functions of matrices have previously been studied as the observables in matrix models invariant under $S_N$, the symmetric group of all permutations of $N$ objects. In this paper, the permutation invariant…
We investigate the geometry of the family $\cal M$ of isometry classes of compact metric spaces, endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff metric. We show that sufficiently small neighborhoods of generic finite spaces in the subspace of all finite…
We investigate the local structure of the space $\mathcal{M}$ consisting of isometry classes of compact metric spaces, endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff metric. We consider finite metric spaces of the same cardinality and suppose that these…
A new method of metric space investigation, based on classification of its finite subspaces, is suggested. It admits to derive information on metric space properties which is encoded in metric. The method describes geometry in terms of only…
We introduce the notion of controlled products on metric spaces as a generalization of Gromov products, and construct boundaries by using controlled products, which we call the Gromov boundaries. It is shown that the Gromov boundary with…
We introduce a model of the set of all Polish (=separable complete metric) spaces: the cone $\cal R$ of distance matrices, and consider geometric and probabilistic problems connected with this object. The notion of the universal distance…
A marked metric measure space (mmm-space) is a triple (X,r,mu), where (X,r) is a complete and separable metric space and mu is a probability measure on XxI for some Polish space I of possible marks. We study the space of all (equivalence…
This paper introduces a new metric and mean on the set of positive semidefinite matrices of fixed-rank. The proposed metric is derived from a well-chosen Riemannian quotient geometry that generalizes the reductive geometry of the positive…
Over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$, the evaluation of skew polynomials is intimately related to the evaluation of linearized polynomials. This connection allows one to relate the concept of polynomial independence defined for skew…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field and ${\sf G}(2,k^4)$ the Grassmannian of 2-planes in $k^4$. We associate to each 6-dimensional subspace $R$ of the space of 4x4 matrices over $k$ a closed subscheme ${\bf X}_R \subseteq {\sf…
We describe generating functions for arbitrary-genus Gromov-Witten invariants of the projective space with any number of marked points explicitly. The structural portion of this description gives rise to uniform energy bounds and vanishing…
The paper studies a general scheme for constructing metrics on a product of metric spaces by means of a family of continuous convex functions. This construction includes the conventional $p$-metrics and generates metrics that are…
In this work, a metric is presented on the set of boundedly-compact pointed metric spaces that generates the Gromov-Hausdorff topology. A similar metric is defined for measured metric spaces that generates the Gromov-Hausdorff-Prokhorov…
We prove that the Gromov boundary of every hyperbolic group is homeomorphic to some Markov compactum. Our reasoning is based on constructing a sequence of covers of $\partial G$, which is quasi-$G$-invariant wrt. the ball $N$-type (defined…
Inspired by group cohomology, we define several coarse topological invariants of metric spaces. We define the coarse cohomological dimension of a metric space, and demonstrate that if G is a countable group, then the coarse cohomological…

Geometric moment invariants (GMIs) have been widely used as basic tool in shape analysis and information retrieval. Their structure and characteristics determine efficiency and effectiveness. Two fundamental building blocks or generating…
In this paper, we apply recent methods of localized GLSMs to make predictions for Gromov-Witten invariants of noncommutative resolutions, as defined by e.g. Kontsevich, and use those predictions to examine the connectivity of the SCFT…
We use techniques from Gromov-Witten theory to construct new invariants of matroids taking value in the Chow groups of spaces of rational curves in the permutohedral toric variety. When the matroid is realizable by a complex hyperplane…
