In this paper we introduce a notion of the Gromov-Hausdorff distance with boundary, denoted by $d_{GHB}$, to construct a framework of convergence of noncomplete metric spaces. We show that a class of bounded $A$-uniform spaces with diameter…

This is the obligatory Cosmic Microwave Background review. I discuss the current status of CMB anisotropies, together with some points on the related topic of the Far-Infrared Background. We have already learned a number of important things…

In various areas of modern physics and in particular in quantum gravity or foundational space-time physics it is of great importance to be in the possession of a systematic procedure by which a macroscopic or continuum limit can be…

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…

Finite metric spaces arise in many different contexts. Enormous bodies of data, scientific, commercial and others can often be viewed as large metric spaces. It turns out that the metric of graphs reveals a lot of interesting information.…

Any discrete approach to quantum gravity must provide some prescription as to how to deduce continuum properties from the discrete substructure. In the causal set approach it is straightforward to deduce timelike distances, but surprisingly…

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 show how quantum mechanics can be understood as a space-time theory provided that its spatial continuum is modelled by a variable real number (qrumber) continuum. Such a continuum can be constructed using only standard Hilbert space…

We consider metric measure spaces $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathscr{H}^N)$ satisfying the properties (ETR), (LBD), and with an almost everywhere connected regular set. In particular, these assumptions are fulfilled by non-collapsed RCD$(K,N)$ spaces…

The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the connection between the properties of the Gromov--Hausdorff distance and the Borsuk conjecture. The Borsuk number of a given bounded metric space $X$ is the infimum of cardinal numbers $n$…

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…

We start by presenting a brief summary of fractional quantum mechanics, as means to convey a motivation towards fractional quantum cosmology. Subsequently, such application is made concrete with the assistance of a case study. Specifically,…

In general relativity (GR), spacetime geometry is no longer just a background arena but a physical and dynamical entity with its own degrees of freedom. We present an overview of approaches to quantum gravity in which this central feature…

In this paper, we introduce a pseudometric on the family of isometry classes of (extended) metric spaces. Using it, we obtain a natural compactification of the Gromov-Hausdorff space, which is compatible with ultralimit.

We survey some basic results on the Gromov-Prohorov distance between metric measure spaces. (We do not claim any new results.) We give several different definitions and show the equivalence of them. We also show that convergence in the…

The minimal-length paradigm, a possible implication of quantum gravity at low energies, is commonly understood as a phenomenological modification of Heisenberg's uncertainty relation. We show that this modification is equivalent to a…
