Limit of metric spaces

Let $\{X_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be a collection of T2 topological spaces, with maps $f_n\colon X_n \to X_{n+1}$. These maps are continuous and open. Let $X$ be the direct limit of this system. Assume ...

When do Polish spaces admit complete metric making them $\mathrm{CAT}(\kappa)$?

Question $\DeclareMathOperator\CAT{CAT}$Let $X$ be a Polish space. When are there known conditions under which $X$'s topology can be metrized by a metric $d$ such that $(X,d)$ is a: $\CAT(\kappa)$ ...

Do all manifolds admit metrics with Euclidean balls?

Let $M$ be a compact topological n-manifold. Suppose we are given a locally flat embedding $M \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+k}$. This induces a metric on $M$ by restriction. Is it true that for $\epsilon$ ...
