A new sequential approach to investigations of structure of metric spaces at infinity is proposed. Criteria for finiteness and boundedness of metric spaces at infinity are found.

In some scientific fields, a scaling is able to modify the topology of an observed object. Our goal in the present work is to introduce a new formalism adapted to the mathematical representation of this kind of phenomenon. To this end, we…

It has been shown that the extension of the elasticity theory in more than three dimensions allows a description of space-time as a properly stressed medium, even recovering the Minkowski metric in the case of uniaxial stress. The…

Asymptotic property C for metric spaces was introduced by Dranishnikos as generalization of finite asymptotic dimension - asdim. It turns out that this property can be viewed as transfinite extension of asymptotic dimension. The original…

In this paper, we study alternating projections on nontangential manifolds based on the tangent spaces. The main motivation is that the projection of a point onto a manifold can be computational expensive. We propose to use the tangent…

Non-degenerate real hypersurfaces of almost Hermite-like manifolds are examined. Tangential real hypersurfaces are introduced and the main identities of such hypersurfaces are obtained. With the help of these identities, contact metric…

It is shown by very simple arguments that the observed 3+1 dimensionality of spacetime may be understood on the basis of four fundamental principles of physics namely, Causality, General Covariance, Gauge Invariance and Renormalizability.…

We seek for an alternative to the metric tensor $g_{\mu\nu}$ as a fundamental geometrical object in four-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. We suggest that the metric tensor $g_{\mu\nu}(P)$ at a given point $P$ of a manifold may be replaced…

Albeverio, Kondratiev, and R\"{o}ckner have introduced a type of differential geometry, which we call lifted geometry, for the configuration space $\Gamma_X$ of any manifold $X$. The name comes from the fact that various elements of the…

Theories defined in higher than four dimensions have been used in various frameworks and have a long and interesting history. Here we review certain attempts, developed over the last years, towards the construction of unified particle…

We review the most recent progress in our understanding of quantum mechanical observables in cosmology in the perturbative regime. It relies on an approach that considers them directly as functions of the data at the space-like boundary at…

We study the dynamics generated by return maps associated with nested convex bodies and growing domains satisfying the geometric normal property in the plane. These maps are defined by transporting boundary points along normal directions to…

This work introduces two new notions of dimension, namely the unimodular Minkowski and Hausdorff dimensions, which are inspired from the classical analogous notions. These dimensions are defined for unimodular discrete spaces, introduced in…

Metric embeddings traditionally study how to map $n$ items to a target metric space such that distance lengths are not heavily distorted; but what if we only care to preserve the relative order of the distances (and not their length)? In…

We present a slightly different formulation of Zak's theorem on tangencies as well as some applications. In particular, we obtain a better bound on the dimension of the dual variety of a manifold and we classify extremal and…

The notion of frontals in Euclidean space is introduced and the normal and tangent maps to frontals are studied for both geometrical and dynamical aspects of frontals. Moreover we observe that parallels of the tangent map to a frontal curve…

Metrics on Grassmannians have a wide array of applications: machine learning, wireless communication, computer vision, etc. But the available distances between subspaces of distinct dimensions present problems, and the dimensional asymmetry…

Using ultraproduct techniques we define a nonstandard Minkowski dimension which exists for all bounded sets and which has the property that $\dim(A\times B)=\dim(A)+\dim(B).$ That is, our new dimension is product-summable. To illustrate our…

The main goal of this paper has a double purpose. On the one hand, we propose a new definition in order to compute the fractal dimension of a subset respect to any fractal structure, which completes the theory of classical box-counting…

We provide the first known upper bounds for the packing dimension of weighted singular and weighted $\omega$-singular matrices. We also prove upper bounds for these sets when intersected with fractal subsets. The latter results, even in the…
