A metric space is a pair $(X,d)$, where $X$ is a set and $d:X \times X \to \mathbb{R}$ satisfies the following conditions for all $x,y,z \in X$. (Symmetry) $d(x,y)=d(y,x)$. (Identity of Indiscernibles) $d(x,y)=0$ if and only if $x=y$. (Triangle Inequality) $d(x,y)+d(y,z) \geq d(x,z)$.

Lipschitz-regularity of partition of unity
Let $K$ be a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\mathcal{U}$ be a finite collection of open subsets covering $K$ satisfying the minimality property: for every $U\in \mathcal{U}$, the sub-collection …

Smallest doubling subset of a set in a metric space
Let $(X,d)$ be a separable metric space and $A\subseteq X$ be compact.
Since every finite set is doubling then, the collection $\mathcal{A}$ of doubling subsets of $A$ cannot be empty. My initial que …

Are Carnot groups ever CAT(𝜅) spaces?
Let $G$ be a free Carnot group of homogeneous dimension $d$, equipped with the Carnot–Carathéodory metric. Is $(G,d)$ ever $\operatorname{CAT}(\kappa)$ for some $\kappa\in \mathbb{R}$?

Hyperbolic space embeds into Wasserstein space
Fix a positive integer $n$, let $\mathbb{H}^n$ be the $n$-dimensional hyperbolic space, $r>0$, $x\in \mathbb{H}^n$ and consider the closed (compact) geodesic ball $B_{\mathbb{H}^n}(x,r)$. Are there k …

When are uniform embeddings quasisymetric
Let $X,Y$ be metric space and suppose that $f:X\rightarrow Y$ is a uniform embedding; i.e.:
$$
\omega(d_X(x,z))\leq d_Y(f(x),f(z)) \leq \Omega(d_X(x,z)),
$$
where $\omega\leq \Omega$ are both strictly …

Relationship between doubling constant of a metric space and of a metric measure space
Let $(X,d,m)$ be a metric measure space. We say that it is doubling in the sense of metric spaces if for every:
$x\in X$ and every $r>0$ there exists some (metric) doubling constant $C_d\geq 0$ such …

Best estimate on doubling constant of a finite metric space
Let $(X,d)$ be a finite metric space. Clearly, $(X,d)$ is a doubling metric space but is there a 'best' estimate of $(X,d)$'s doubling constant?
Probability based on its cardinality, diameter, and mi …

When are Wasserstein spaces $CAT(\kappa)$?
Let $(X,d)$ be a complete and separable metric space and, for $1\leq p<\infty$, let $(\mathcal{P}_p(X,d),W_p)$ be the $p$-Wasserstein space on $(X,d)$. For which $p$ and $(X,d)$ is $(\mathcal{P}_p(X, …
