Tangent Lines and Lipschitz Differentiability Spaces

Fabio Cavalletti, Tapio Rajala (2016)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

We study the existence of tangent lines, i.e. subsets of the tangent space isometric to the real line, in tangent spaces of metric spaces.We first revisit the almost everywhere metric differentiability of Lipschitz continuous curves. We then show that any blow-up done at a point of metric differentiability and of density one for the domain of the curve gives a tangent line. Metric differentiability enjoys a Borel measurability property and this will permit us to use it in the framework of Lipschitz...

The Boundary at Infinity of a Rough CAT(0) Space

S.M. Buckley, K. Falk (2014)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

We develop the boundary theory of rough CAT(0) spaces, a class of length spaces that contains both Gromov hyperbolic length spaces and CAT(0) spaces. The resulting theory generalizes the common features of the Gromov boundary of a Gromov hyperbolic length space and the ideal boundary of a complete CAT(0) space. It is not assumed that the spaces are geodesic or proper

Topology of the isometry group of the Urysohn space

Julien Melleray (2010)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Using classical results of infinite-dimensional geometry, we show that the isometry group of the Urysohn space, endowed with its usual Polish group topology, is homeomorphic to the separable Hilbert space ℓ²(ℕ). The proof is based on a lemma about extensions of metric spaces by finite metric spaces, which we also use to investigate (answering a question of I. Goldbring) the relationship, when A,B are finite subsets of the Urysohn space, between the group of isometries fixing A pointwise, the group...
