Let $(X, d)$ be a compact metric space and let $\mathcal{M}(X)$ denote the space of all finite signed Borel measures on $X$. Define $I \colon \mathcal{M}(X) \to \R$ by \[ I(\mu) = \int_X \int_X d(x,y) d\mu(x) d\mu(y), \] and set $M(X) =…

We show that, given a metric space $(Y,d)$ of curvature bounded from above in the sense of Alexandrov, and a positive Radon measure $\mu$ on $Y$ giving finite mass to bounded sets, the resulting metric measure space $(Y,d,\mu)$ is…

Let $p$ be a real number greater than one and let $X$ be a locally compact, noncompact metric measure space that satisfies certain conditions. The $p$-Royden and $p$-harmonic boundaries of $X$ are constructed by using the $p$-Royden algebra…

we prove that if $X$ is a locally compact $\sigma$-compact space then on its quotient, $\gamma(X)$ say, determined by the algebra of all real valued bounded continuous functions on $X$, the quotient topology and the completely regular…

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…

In a previous paper the authors developed a H^1-BMO theory for unbounded metric measure spaces $(M,\rho,m)$ of infinite measure that are locally doubling and satisfy two geometric properties, called "approximate midpoint" property and…

Any two compact, complete, one-dimensional geodesic spaces with identical marked length spectrum have isometric $\pi_1$-hull. The present version contains errors, notably in Lemmas 2.2 and 2.3 (path cancellations can be more complicated),…

Metric spaces $(X, d)$ are ubiquitous objects in mathematics and computer science that allow for capturing (pairwise) distance relationships $d(x, y)$ between points $x, y \in X$. Because of this, it is natural to ask what useful…

In this article it is proved, that every locally compact second countable group has a left invariant metric d, which generates the topology on G, and which is proper, ie. every closed d-bounded set in G is compact. Moreover, we obtain the…

Given a locally compact Polish space X, a necessary and sufficient condition for a group G of homeomorphisms of X to be the full isometry group of (X,d) for some proper metric d on X is given. It is shown that every locally compact Polish…

We prove that, for an arbitrary topological space $X$, the following two conditions are equivalent: (a) Every open cover of $X$ has a finite subset with dense union (b) $X$ is $D$-pseudocompact, for every ultrafilter $D$. Locally, our…

We show the existence of Lipschitz-free spaces verifying the Point of Continuity Property with arbitrarily high weak-fragmentability index. For this purpose, we use a generalized construction of the countably branching diamond graphs. As a…

We consider the numbers of positive and negative eigenvalues of matrices of squared distances between randomly sampled i.i.d. points in a given metric measure space. These numbers and their limits, as the number of points grows, in fact…

A characterization of finite homogeneous ultrametric spaces and finite ultrametric spaces generated by unrooted labeled trees is found in terms of representing trees. A characterization of finite ultrametric spaces having perfect strictly…

According to a folklore characterization of supercompact spaces, a compact Hausdorff space is supercompact if and only if it has a binary closed $k$-network. This characterization suggests to call a topological space $super$ if it has a…

We show that a homeomorphism of a semi-locally connected compact metric space is equicontinuous if and only if the distance between the iterates of a given point and a given subcontinuum (not containing that point) is bounded away from…

For a cardinal $\kappa > \omega$ a metric space $X$ is called to be $\kappa$-superuniversal whenever for every metric space $Y$ with $|Y| < \kappa$ every partial isometry from a subset of $Y$ into $X$ can be extended over the whole space…

We show that there are uncountably many mutually non-isomorphic Lipschitz-free spaces over countable, complete, discrete metric spaces. Also there is a countable, complete, discrete metric space whose free space does not embed into the free…

This note consists of two largely independent parts. In the first part we give conditions on the kernel $k: \Omega \times \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ of a reproducing kernel Hilbert space $H$ continuously embedded via the identity…

We give sufficient conditions for a metric space to bilipschitz embed in L_1. In particular, if X is a length space and there is a Lipschitz map u:X--->R such that for every interval I in R, the connected components of the inverse image…
