In this article, we introduce the notion of locally uniformly d-controlling map between Lorentzian pre-length spaces which is preserving the diameters of causal diamonds, and through that we establish the coarea inequality for Lorentzian…
We present an extension of the Gromov-Hausdorff metric on the set of compact metric spaces: the Gromov-Hausdorff-Prokhorov metric on the set of compact metric spaces endowed with a finite measure. We then extend it to the non-compact case…
We study the Lorentzian metric independent of the time variable in the cylinder $\mathbb{R}\times\Omega$ where $x_0\in\mathbb{R}$ is the time variable and $\Omega$ is a bounded smooth domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We consider forward…
It is well-known that global hyperbolicity implies that the Lorentzian distance is finite and continuous. By carefully analysing the causes of discontinuity of the Lorentzian distance, we show that in most other respects the finiteness and…
The paper establishes a sharp and rigid isoperimetric-type inequality in Lorentzian signature under the assumption of Ricci curvature bounded below in the timelike directions. The inequality is proved in the high generality of Lorentzian…
Geometric characteristics of metric spaces that appear in formulas of the Gromov--Hausdorff distances from these spaces to so-called simplexes, i.e., to the metric spaces, all whose non-zero distances are the same are studied. The…
We introduce a particular class of unbounded closed convex sets of $\R^{d+1}$, called F-convex sets (F stands for future). To define them, we use the Minkowski bilinear form of signature $(+,...,+,-)$ instead of the usual scalar product,…
We study the low-regularity (in-)extendibility of spacetimes within the synthetic-geometric framework of Lorentzian length spaces developed in [KS:17]. To this end, we introduce appropriate notions of geodesics and timelike geodesic…
In the present paper we investigate geometric characteristics of compact metric spaces, which can be described in terms of Gromov-Hausdorff distances to simplexes, i.e., to finite metric spaces such that all their nonzero distances are…
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…
The null distance for Lorentzian manifolds was recently introduced by Sormani and Vega. Under mild assumptions on the time function of the spacetime, the null distance gives rise to an intrinsic, conformally invariant metric that induces…
The Lorentzian metric structure used in any field theory allows one to implement the relativistic notion of causality and to define a notion of time dimension. This article investigates the possibility that at the microscopic level the…
The Gromov-Hausdorff distance provides a metric on the set of isometry classes of compact metric spaces. Unfortunately, computing this metric directly is believed to be computationally intractable. Motivated by applications in shape…
We extend Beem's three completeness notions -- finite compactness, timelike Cauchy completeness, and Condition A -- originally defined for spacetimes, to Lorentzian length spaces and study their relationships. We prove that finite…
Building upon previous works characterizing GRW space-times using concircular and torse-forming vectors, this paper investigates a Lorentzian manifold equipped with a concircularly semi-symmetric metric connection. We demonstrate that such…
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…
The intrinsic timed-Hausdorff distance between timed-metric spaces, first introduced by Sakovich--Sormani, yields a weak notion of convergence for space-times. In this paper we prove a compactness theorem for the intrinsic timed-Hausdorff…
We present a version of the Lorentzian splitting theorem under a weakened Ricci curvature condition. The proof makes use of basic properties of achronal limits [19], [20], together with the geometric maximum principle for $C^0$ spacelike…
In metric geometry, the question of whether a distance metric is given by the length of curves can be decided via the existence of midpoints with respect to the metric $d$. We adapt a similar characterization to the setting of Lorentzian…
The aim of this paper is to study ultralimits of pointed metric measure spaces (possibly unbounded and having infinite mass). We prove that ultralimits exist under mild assumptions and are consistent with the pointed measured…
