Distance between two points using triangulation

Suppose we have two points $p_1$ and $p_2$ in a metric space with unknown dimensionality, with no way to directly compute the distance between them, e.g. no coordinates. Say we can randomly sample a ...

Are Hölder functions between Banach spaces residual in the compact-open topology?

Let $X$ and $Y$ be Banach spaces and let $C(X,Y)$ be the set of continuous functions from $X$ to $Y$ equipped with the topology of uniform convergence on compact sets (i.e. the compact-open topology). ...

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: $\CAT(\kappa)$ ...

Topological characterization of injective metric spaces

Let $\ (X\ d)\ \,(Y\ \delta)\ $ be arbitrary metric spaces. A function $\ f:X\rightarrow Y\ $ is called a metric map (with respect to the given metrics $\ d\ \delta$) $\ \Leftarrow:\Rightarrow\ \...
