We construct metric spaces that do not have property A yet are coarsely embeddable into the Hilbert space. Our examples are so called warped cones, which were introduced by J. Roe to serve as examples of spaces non-embeddable into a Hilbert…
We introduce a generalization for bounded geometry that we call bounded scale measure. We show that bounded scale measure is a coarse invariant unlike bounded geometry. We then show equivalent definitions for spaces with bounded scale…
We study property A for metric spaces $X$ with bounded geometry introduced by Guoliang Yu. Property A is an amenability-type condition, which is less restrictive than amenability for groups. The property has a connection with…
Property A is a geometric property originally introduced for discrete metric spaces to provide a sufficient condition for coarse embeddability into Hilbert space, and it is defined via a F\o{}lner condition similar in spirit to the…
We consider two versions of the uniform Roe algebra for uniformly discrete spaces without bounded geometry and discuss some of their properties.
We expose a class of discrete metric spaces, for which bounded geometry is equivalent to the property A of G. Yu. This class includes the coarse disjoint union of $(\mathbb Z/2\mathbb Z)^n$, $n\in\mathbb N$, and consists of spaces of simple…
Geometric property (T) was defined by Willett and Yu, first for sequences of graphs and later for more general discrete spaces. Increasing sequences of graphs with geometric property (T) are expanders, and they are examples of coarse spaces…
We study embeddings of uniform Roe algebras which have "large range" in their codomain and the relation of those with coarse quotients between metric spaces. Among other results, we show that if $Y$ has property A and there is an embedding…
We construct the first example of a coarsely non-amenable (= without Guoliang Yu's property A) metric space with bounded geometry which coarsely embeds into a Hilbert space.
We describe a construction (the `warped cone construction') which produces examples of coarse spaces with large groups of translations. We show that by this construction we can obtain many examples of coarse spaces which do not have…
We prove that uniformly locally finite metric spaces with isomorphic Roe algebras must be coarsely equivalent. As an application, we also prove that the outer automorphism group of the Roe algebra of a metric space of bounded geometry is…
Given a coarse space $(X,\mathcal{E})$, one can define a $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $\mathrm{C}^*_u(X)$ called the uniform Roe algebra of $(X,\mathcal{E})$. It has been proved by J. \v{S}pakula and R. Willett that if the uniform Roe algebras of…
For locally compact groups, we define an analogue to Yu's property A that he defined for discrete metric spaces. We show that our property A for locally compact groups agrees with Roe's notion of property A for proper metric spaces, defined…
The main purpose of the paper is to find some expansion properties of locally finite metric spaces which do not embed coarsely into a Hilbert space. The obtained result is used to show that infinite locally finite graphs excluding a minor…
Most research into similarity search in metric spaces relies upon the triangle inequality property. This property allows the space to be arranged according to relative distances to avoid searching some subspaces. We show that many common…
In this paper, we study the relation between the uniform Roe algebra and the uniform quasi-local algebra associated to a metric space of bounded geometry. In the process, we introduce a weakening of the notion of expanders, called…
We define the concept of a partial translation structure T on a metric space X and we show that there is a natural C*-algebra C*(T) associated with it which is a subalgebra of the uniform Roe algebra C*_u(X). We introduce a coarse invariant…
We generalize all known results on rigidity of uniform Roe algebras to the setting of arbitrary uniformly locally finite coarse spaces. For instance, we show that isomorphism between uniform Roe algebras of uniformly locally finite coarse…
Gong, Wang and Yu introduced a maximal, or universal, version of the Roe C*-algebra associated to a metric space. We study the relationship between this maximal Roe algebra and the usual version, in both the uniform and non-uniform cases.…
We characterise Geometric Property (T) by the existence of a certain projection in the maximal uniform Roe algebra $C_{u,\max}^*(X)$, extending the notion of Kazhdan projection for groups to the realm of metric spaces. We also describe this…
