A Quantitative Guessing Geodesics Theorem

Metric Geometry 2024-10-30 v1 Group Theory

Abstract

We present a quantitative version of Guessing Geodesics, which is a well-known theorem that provides a set of conditions to prove hyperbolicity of a given metric space. This version adds to the existing result by determining an explicit estimate of the hyperbolicity constant. As a sample application of this result, we estimate the hyperbolicity constant for a particular hyperbolic model of CAT(0)\mathrm{CAT}(0) spaces known as the curtain model.
