We introduce an analogue of the theory of length spaces into the setting of Lorentzian geometry and causality theory. The r\^ole of the metric is taken over by the time separation function, in terms of which all basic notions are…
This article suggests the definition of "Lorentzian space" weakening the notion of Lorentzian length spaces just as much that it allows for a functor from the category of strongly causal Lorentzian manifolds to the corresponding category of…
In this paper, we investigate compact ultrametric measure spaces which form a subset $\mathcal{U}^w$ of the collection of all metric measure spaces $\mathcal{M}^w$. Similar as for the ultrametric Gromov-Hausdorff distance on the collection…
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…
Consider the geometric inverse problem: There is a set of delta-sources in spacetime that emit waves travelling at unit speed. If we know all the arrival times at the boundary cylinder of the spacetime, can we reconstruct the space, a…
We completely describe the Gromov-Hausdorff closure of the class of length spaces being homeomorphic to a fixed closed surface.
We characterize those spacetimes which admit a isometric (or conformal) embedding in some Lorentz-Minkowski space L^N. In particular, any globally hyperbolic spacetime can be isometrically embedded in L^N. This is proven by a result of its…
The Gromov--Hausdorff distance measures the difference in shape between compact metric spaces. While even approximating the distance up to any practical factor poses an NP-hard problem, its relaxations have proven useful for the problems in…
A timelike space is a Hausdorff topological space equipped with a partial order relation $<$ and a distance function $\rho$ satisfying a collection of axioms including a set of compatibility conditions between the partial order relation and…
After calculating the Dushnik-Miller dimension of Minkowski spaces to be countable infinity, we define a novel notion of dimension for ordered spaces recovering the correct manifold dimension and obtain a corresponding obstruction for the…
We consider collections of Lagrangian submanifolds of a given symplectic manifold which respect uniform bounds of curvature type coming from an auxiliary Riemannian metric. We prove that, for a large class of metrics on these collections,…
In this paper, we give a generalisation of Gromov's compactness theorem for metric spaces, more precisely, we give a compactness theorem for the space of distance measure spaces equipped with a \emph{generalised…
Marc Rieffel had introduced the notion of the quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance on compact quantum metric spaces and found a sequence of matrix algebras that converges to the space of continuous functions on $2$-sphere in this distance. One…
We equip the space of Cauchy hypersurfaces in a globally hyperbolic spacetime with a natural Hausdorff-type metric and study its properties, in particular completeness and local compactness, for Lorentzian manifolds and in more general…
We define a Lorentzian distance function on the group of contactomorphisms of a closed contact manifold. This distance function is continuous with respect to the Hofer norm on the group of contactomorphisms defined by Shelukhin and finite…
In the synthetic geometric setting introduced by Kunzinger and S\"amann, we present an analogue of Toponogov's Globalisation Theorem which applies to Lorentzian length spaces with lower (timelike) curvature bounds. Our approach utilises a…
We show that the random adjacency matrices induced by the chronological relations and i.i.d. samples of two spacetimes coincide in law if and only if the spacetimes in question are smoothly isometric. A similar result holds for weighted…
Assuming minimal regularity assumptions on the data, we revisit the classical problem of finding isometric immersions into the Minkowski spacetime for hypersurfaces of a Lorentzian manifold. Our approach encompasses metrics having Sobolev…
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate relations between Gromov-Hausdorff distance properties and the Borsuk Conjecture. The Borsuk number of a given bounded metric space $X$ is the infimum of cardinal numbers $n$ such that $X$ can be…
The Hausdorff distance measures how far apart two sets are in a common metric space. By contrast, the Gromov-Hausdorff distance provides a notion of distance between two abstract metric spaces. How do these distances behave for quotients of…
