Nondegenerate quadratic forms over $p$-adic fields are classified by their dimension, discriminant, and Hasse invariant. This paper uses these three invariants, elementary facts about $p$-adic fields and the theory of quadratic forms to…

Negative type inequalities arise in the study of embedding properties of metric spaces, but they often reduce to intractable combinatorial problems. In this paper we study more quantitative versions of these inequalities involving the…

Let $n$ be a positive integer. We provide an explicit geometrically motivated $1$-Lipschitz map from the space of persistence diagrams on $n$ points (equipped with the Bottleneck distance) into the Hilbert space $\ell^2$. Such maps are a…

The germ of an algebraic variety is naturally equipped with two different metrics up to bilipschitz equivalence. The inner metric and the outer metric. One calls a germ of a variety Lipschitz normally embedded if the two metrics are…

We give a sufficient condition for a projective metric on a subset of a Euclidean space to admit a bi-Lipschitz embedding into Euclidean space of the same dimension.

We introduce a class of metric spaces called $p$-additive combinations and show that for such spaces we may deduce information about their $p$-negative type behaviour by focusing on a relatively small collection of almost disjoint metric…

Given a strictly increasing sequence $\Lambda=(\lambda_n)$ of nonegative real numbers, with $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{\lambda_n}<\infty$, the M\"untz spaces $M_\Lambda^p$ are defined as the closure in $L^p([0,1])$ of the monomials…

Suppose that a metric space $X$ is the union of two metric subspaces $A$ and $B$ that embed into Euclidean space with distortions $D_A$ and $D_B$, respectively. We prove that then $X$ embeds into Euclidean space with a bounded distortion…

Doust and Weston introduced a new method called "enhanced negative type" for calculating a non trivial lower bound p(T) on the supremal strict p-negative type of any given finite metric tree (T,d). In the context of finite metric trees any…

This is one of a series of papers examining the interplay between differentiation theory for Lipschitz maps, X-->V, and bi-Lipschitz nonembeddability, where X is a metric measure space and V is a Banach space. Here, we consider the case…

It is known that if finite subsets of a locally finite metric space $M$ admit $C$-bilipschitz embeddings into $\ell_p$ $(1\le p\le \infty)$, then for every $\epsilon>0$, the space $M$ admits a $(C+\epsilon)$-bilipschitz embedding into…

We construct bi-Lipschitz embeddings into Euclidean space for manifolds and orbifolds of bounded diameter and curvature. The distortion and dimension of such embeddings is bounded by diameter, curvature and dimension alone. Our results also…

Since persistence diagrams do not admit an inner product structure, a map into a Hilbert space is needed in order to use kernel methods. It is natural to ask if such maps necessarily distort the metric on persistence diagrams. We show that…

The main question studied in this article may be viewed as a nonlinear analogue of Dvoretzky's theorem in Banach space theory or as part of Ramsey theory in combinatorics. Given a finite metric space on n points, we seek its subspace of…

We present an overview of a result by Ju. A. Dubinskii [Mat. Sb. 67 (109) (1965); translated in Amer. Math. Soc. Transl. (2) 67 (1968)], concerning the compact embedding of a seminormed set in $L^p(0,T; \mathcal{A}_0)$, where…

There are several characterizations of coarse embeddability of a discrete metric space into a Hilbert space. In this note we give such characterizations for general metric spaces. By applying these results to the spaces $L_p(\mu)$, we get…

A well-known theorem of Assouad states that metric spaces satisfying the doubling property can be snowflaked and bi-Lipschitz embedded into Euclidean spaces. Due to the invariance of many geometric properties under bi-Lipschitz maps, this…

We study properties of twisted unions of metric spaces introduced by Johnson, Lindenstrauss, and Schechtman, and by Naor and Rabani. In particular, we prove that under certain natural mild assumptions twisted unions of $L_1$-embeddable…

The Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$ equipped with a sub-Riemannian metric is one of the most well known examples of a doubling metric space which does not admit a bi-Lipschitz embedding into any Euclidean space. In this paper we investigate…
