It is shown that any bounded metric space can be isometrically embedded into the Gromov--Hausdorff metric class GH. This result is a consequence of local geometry description of the class GH in a sufficiently small neighborhood of a generic…

The Gromov-Hausdorff (GH) distance is a natural way to measure distance between two metric spaces. We prove that it is $\mathrm{NP}$-hard to approximate the Gromov-Hausdorff distance better than a factor of $3$ for geodesic metrics on a…

We first prove that for all compact metrizable spaces, there exists a topological embedding of the compact metrizable space into each of the sets of compact metric spaces which are connected, path-connected, geodesic, or CAT(0), in the…

We provide an alternative, constructive proof that the collection $\mathcal{M}$ of isometry classes of compact metric spaces endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff distance is a geodesic space. The core of our proof is a construction of explicit…

This paper studies $l^p$-products of metric spaces and provides estimates for the Gromov-Hausdorff distances between them. The case of linear products is considered separately, and sufficient conditions for attainability of the estimates…

We construct analoga of Gromov-Hausdorff space for Lorentzian distances and show a Gromov precompactness result for one of them. After calculating the Dushnik-Miller dimension of Minkowski spaces (of manifold dimension larger than 2) to be…

In this paper, we study metric trees, without any finiteness restrictions. For subsets of such trees, a condition that guarantees that the Hausdorff and Gromov--Hausdorff distances from the subset to the entire metric tree are the same is…

This writeup describes ongoing work on designing and testing a certain family of correspondences between compact metric spaces that we call \emph{embedding-projection correspondences} (EPCs). Of particular interest are EPCs between spheres…

We prove a compactness theorem for the dual Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity as a noncommutative analogue of the Gromov compactness theorem for the Gromov-Hausdorff distance. Our theorem is valid for subclasses of quasi-Leibniz compact quantum…

The paper is devoted to the study of Gromov-Hausdorff convergence and stability of irreversible metric-measure spaces, both in the compact and noncompact cases. While the compact setting is mostly similar to the reversible case developed by…

What is the analogous notion of Gromov-Hausdorff convergence for sequences of spacetimes? Since a Lorentzian manifold is not inherently a metric space, one cannot simply use the traditional definition. One approach offered by Sormani and…

It is proved that the Gromov-Hausdorff metric on the space of compact metric spaces considered up to an isometry is strictly intrinsic, i.e., the corresponding metric space is geodesic. In other words, each two points of this space (each…

Let $G$ be a finite, connected metric graph and let $X\subseteq G$ be a subset. If $X$ is sufficiently dense in $G$, we show that the Gromov--Hausdorff distance matches the Hausdorff distance, namely $d_\gh(G,X)=d_\h(G,X)$. When the metric…

The classical Hausdorff dimension of finite or countable metric spaces is zero. Recently, we defined a variant, called \emph{finite Hausdorff dimension}, which is not necessarily trivial on finite metric spaces. In this paper we apply this…
