Let $(X, d)$ be an unbounded metric space. To investigate the asymptotic behavior of $(X, d)$ at infinity, one can consider a sequence of rescaling metric spaces $(X, \frac{1}{r_n} d)$ generated by given sequence $(r_n)_{n \in \mathbb N}$…

Let $(X, d)$ be an unbounded metric space and let $\tilde r=(r_n)_{n\in\mathbb N}$ be a sequence of positive real numbers tending to infinity. A pretangent space $\Omega_{\infty, \tilde r}^{X}$ to $(X, d)$ at infinity is a limit of the…

Let (X,d,p) be a pointed metric space. A pretangent space to X at p is a metric space consisting of some equivalence classes of convergent to p sequences (x_n), x_n \in X, whose degree of convergence is comparable with a given scaling…

Let $(X,d,p)$ be a pointed metric space. A pretangent space to $X$ at $p$ is a metric space consisting of some equivalence classes of convergent to $p$ sequences $(x_n), x_n \in X,$ whose degree of convergence is comparable with a given…

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.

Let (X,d,p) be a metric space with a metric d and a marked point p. We define the set of w-strongly porous at 0 subsets of [0,\infty) and prove that the distance set {d(x,p): x\in X} is w-strongly porous at 0 if and only if every pretangent…

Let $(X,d)$ be a finite metric space with $|X|=n$. For a positive integer $k$ we define $A_k(X)$ to be the quotient set of all $k$-subsets of $X$ by isometry, and we denote $|A_k(X)|$ by $a_k$. The sequence $(a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_{n})$ is…

We find necessary and sufficient conditions under which an arbitrary metric space $X$ has a unique pretangent space at the marked point $a\in X$. Key words: Metric spaces; Tangent spaces to metric spaces; Uniqueness of tangent metric…

Fix an integer $r\geq 3$. We consider metric spaces on $n$ points such that the distance between any two points lies in $\{1,..., r\}$. Our main result describes their approximate structure for large $n$. As a consequence, we show that the…

The paper deals with pretangent spaces to general metric spaces. An ltrametricity criterion for pretangent spaces is found and it is closely related to the metric betweenness in the pretangent spaces.

For every countable ordinal number $\xi$, we construct a metric space $X_{\xi}$ whose transfinite asymptotic dimension and complementary-finite asymptotic dimension are both $\xi$.

The purpose of this note is to characterize the asymptotic dimension $asdim(X)$ of metric spaces $X$ in terms similar to Property A of Yu: If $(X,d)$ is a metric space and $n\ge 0$, then the following conditions are equivalent: [a.]…

We find conditions under which the pretangent spaces to general metric spaces have the nonpositive Aleksandrov curvature or nonnegative one. The infinitesimal structure of general metric cpaces with Busemann convex pretangent spaces is also…

Let $Q$ denote the space of signed measures on the Borel $\sigma$-algebra of a separable complete space $X$. We endow $Q$ with the norm $\|q\|=\sup|\int\phi dq|$, where the supremum is taken over all Lipschitz with constant 1 functions…

We investigate a tangent space at a point of a general metric space and metric space valued derivatives. The conditions under which two different subspace of a metric space have isometric tangent spaces in a common point of these subspaces…

We define coarse proximity structures, which are an analog of small-scale proximity spaces in the large-scale context. We show that metric spaces induce coarse proximity structures, and we construct a natural small-scale proximity…

Motivated by the analysis and geometry of metric-measure structures in infinite dimensions, we study the category of extended metric-topological spaces, along with many of its distinguished subcategories (such as the one of compact spaces).…

In this paper we define the magnitude of metric spaces using measures rather than finite subsets as had been done previously and show that this agrees with earlier work with Leinster in arXiv:0908.1582. An explicit formula for the magnitude…

Metric spaces $(X, d)$ are ubiquitous objects in mathematics and computer science that allow for capturing (pairwise) distance relationships $d(x, y)$ between points $x, y \in X$. Because of this, it is natural to ask what useful…

Magnitude is a numerical invariant of compact metric spaces. Its theory is most mature for spaces satisfying the classical condition of being of negative type, and the magnitude of such a space lies in the interval $[1, \infty]$. Until now,…
