We study (plane) tree-valued Markov chains $(T_n,n \geq 1)$ with uniform backward dynamics and show that they can be obtained by sampling from a real tree. As non--plane trees, every such Markov chain is represented by a weighted real tree.…

We study the conditions under which the isometry of spaces with metrics generated by weights given on the edges of finite trees is equivalent to the isomorphism of these trees. Similar questions are studied for ultrametric spaces generated…

We study metric measure spaces that admit "thick" families of rectifiable curves or curve fragments, in the form of Alberti representations or curve families of positive modulus. We show that such spaces cannot be bi-Lipschitz embedded into…

Criteria for subnormality of unbounded injective weighted shifts on leafless directed trees with one branching vertex are proposed. The case of classical weighted shifts is discussed. The relevance of an inductive limit approach to…

We study infinite tree and ultrametric matrices, and their action on the boundary of the tree. For each tree matrix we show the existence of a symmetric random walk associated to it and we study its Green potential. We provide a…

An orbifold version of the Hitchin-Thorpe inequality is used to prove that certain weighted projective spaces do not admit orbifold Einstein metrics. Also, several estimates for the orbifold Yamabe invariants of weighted projective spaces…

We first show that increasing trees are in bijection with set compositions, extending simultaneously a recent result on trees due to Tonks and a classical result on increasing binary trees. We then consider algebraic structures on the…

Phylogenetic trees constitute an interesting class of objects for stochastic processes due to the non-standard nature of the space they inhabit. In particular, many statistical applications require the construction of Markov processes on…

We combine conditions found in [Wh] with results from [MPR] to show that quasi-isometries between uniformly discrete bounded geometry spaces that satisfy linear isoperimetric inequalities are within bounded distance to bilipschitz…

For every $p\in (0,\infty)$ we associate to every metric space $(X,d_X)$ a numerical invariant $\mathfrak{X}_p(X)\in [0,\infty]$ such that if $\mathfrak{X}_p(X)<\infty$ and a metric space $(Y,d_Y)$ admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into $X$…

Using isometric embedding of metric trees into Banach spaces, this paper will investigate barycenters, type and cotype, and various measures of compactness of metric trees. A metric tree ($T$, $d$) is a metric space such that between any…

A metric polygon is a metric space comprised of a finite number of closed intervals joined cyclically. The second-named author and Ntalampekos recently found a method to bi-Lipschitz embed an arbitrary metric triangle in the Euclidean plane…

We show that for a given finitely generated group, its Bernoulli shift space can be equivariantly embedded as a subset of a space of pointed trees with Gromov-Hausdorff metric and natural partial action of a free group. Since the latter can…

Given a finite typed rooted tree $T$ with $n$ vertices, the {\em empirical subtree measure} is the uniform measure on the $n$ typed subtrees of $T$ formed by taking all descendants of a single vertex. We prove a large deviation principle in…

The inclusion of a flat metric tensor in gravitation permits the formulation of a gravitational stress-energy tensor and the formal derivation of general relativity from a linear theory in flat spacetime. Building on the works of Kraichnan…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a map defined on a simply-connected quasiconvex metric space to factor through a tree. In case the target is the Euclidean plane and the map is H\"older continuous with exponent bigger than…

We investigate the interrelations between the metric properties, order properties and combinatorial properties of the set of balls in totally bounded ultrametric space. In particular, the Gurvich-Vyalyi representation of finite, ultrametric…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is geometrically embeddable into a normed space $X$ when there is a mapping $\zeta: V\to X$ such that $\|\zeta(v)-\zeta(w)\|_X\leqslant 1$ if and only if $\{v,w\}\in E$, for all distinct $v,w\in V$. Our result is the…

We introduce a notion of Hilbertian n-volume in metric spaces with Besicovitch-type inequalities built-in into the definitions. which, ultimately, may turn useful for an approach to singular spaces with positive scalar curvature

We first identify (up to linear isomorphism) the Lipschitz free spaces of quasiarcs. By decomposing quasiconformal trees into quasiarcs as done in an article of David, Eriksson-Bique, and Vellis, we then identify the Lipschitz free spaces…
