For $\mathbb R^n \times Q \cong \mathbb R^m \times Q $ must $n = m$? ($Q$ is the Hilbert cube)
There are several theorems describing the topology on hyperspaces of convex subsets of $\mathbb R^n$ under the Hausdorff metric. For example Antonyan and Jonard-Pérez prove the space of compact convex ...

Complexity for determining whether a given metric space is hyperconvex?
Suppose I am given a finite metric space as a distance matrix. What is the complexity of determining whether this metric space is hyperconvex?
Definition: A metric space is said to be hyperconvex if ...

Differentiability of distance to a closed convex set [closed]
Let $( \mathbb{R}^d, \| \mathbf{x}\|_2 )$ be a Euclidean Space. For any nonempty closed convex set $A\subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, we define
\begin{align}
d(\mathbf{x}, A) = \inf \{ \| \mathbf{x} - \mathbf{...

A neighborhood $Y$ of a set $X$ such that the line segment connecting any point in $Y$ and its projection to $X$ is contained in $Y$
A direct line from a point $p$ to a set $X$ is a line segment with one endpoint at $p$ and one endpoint in $X$, which is as short as any other line segment from $p$ to $X$. Given a closed set $X$ and ...

Metric projection on closed convex sets in Busemann space
I am looking for a proof of the following statement:
Let $X$ be a complete Busemann space. For any point $x\in X$ and any nonempty closed convex set $A\subseteq X$, there is a unique $a\in A$ such ...
