In this paper we make some observations concerning m-metric spaces and point out some discrepancies in the proofs found in the literature. To remedy this, we propose a new topological construction and prove that it is in fact a…

We study the topology of metric spaces which are definable in o-minimal expansions of ordered fields. We show that a definable metric space either contains an infinite definable discrete set or is definably homeomorphic to a definable set…

We study locally compact metric spaces that enjoy various forms of homogeneity with respect to M\"obius self-homeomorphisms. We investigate connections between such homogeneity and the combination of isometric homogeneity with…

Metric spaces are a fundamental component of mathematics and have a paramount importance as a framework for measuring distance. They can be found in many different branches of mathematics, such as analysis and topology. This paper offers an…

In a separably connected space any two points are contained in a separable connected subset. We show a mechanism that takes a connected bounded metric space and produces a complete connected metric space whose separablewise components form…

Let (X,d) be a metric space and m\in X. Suppose that \phi:X\times X\to\mathbold{R} is a nonnegative symmetric function. We define a metric d^{\phi,m} on X which is equivalent to d. If d^{\phi,m} is totally bounded, its completion is a…

This paper gives some relating results for various concepts of convexity in metric spaces such as midpoint convexity, convex structure, uniform convexity and near-uniform convexity, Busemann curvature and its relation to convexity. Some…

As a continuation of \cite{NSY:local}, we mainly discuss the global structure of two-dimensional locally compact geodesically complete metric spaces with curvature bounded above. We first obtain the result on the Lipschitz homotopy…

Suppose that there exists a discrete subset $X$ of a complete, connected, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ such that the Riemannian distances between points of $X$ correspond to the Euclidean distances of a net in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$.…

In this note we prove that every metric space $(X, d)$ of asymptotic dimmension at most $n$ is coarsely equivalent to a metric space $(Y, D)$ that satisfies the following property of Nagata: For every $n+2$ points $y_1,..., y_{n+2}$ in $Y$…

We view ultrametric spaces as two-sorted structures consisting of a set of points and of a linearly ordered set of distances. We call the appropriate notion of embeddings distance-carrying (dc for short). Those are obtained by combining…

We determine the homeomorphism type of the space of smooth complete nonnegatively curved metrics on surfaces of positive Euler characteristic equipped with the topology of $C^\gamma$ uniform convergence on compact sets, when $\gamma$ is…

We study geodesically complete and locally compact Hadamard spaces X whose Tits boundary is a connected irreducible spherical building. We show that X is symmetric iff complete geodesics in X do not branch and a Euclidean building…

We show that compact Riemannian manifolds, regarded as metric spaces with their global geodesic distance, cannot contain a number of rigid structures such as (a) arbitrarily large regular simplices or (b) arbitrarily long sequences of…

A generalization of metric space is presented which is shown to admit a theory strongly related to that of ordinary metric spaces. To avoid the topological effects related to dropping any of the axioms of metric space, first a new, and…

We study metric spaces that admit a conical bicombing and thus obey a weak form of non-positive curvature. Prime examples of such spaces are injective metric spaces. In this article we give a complete characterization of complete metric…

This paper is devoted to the study of the $m$-point homogeneity property for the vertex sets of polytopes in Euclidean spaces. In particular, we present the classifications of $2$-point and $3$-point homogeneous polyhedra in $\mathbb{R}^3$.

We investigate certain geometric properties of the spaces of idempotent measures. In particular, we prove that the space of idempotent measures on an infinite compact metric space is homeomorphic to the Hilbert cube.
