Abstract

We consider families of Böröczky tilings in hyperbolic space in arbitrary dimension, study some basic properties and classify all possible symmetries. In particular, it is shown that these tilings are non-crystallographic, and that there are uncountably many tilings with a fixed prototile.

The semicontinuity of dimensions of measures

In this paper, we consider certain uniformity conditions on the radii of balls. Under these conditions, we study the semicontinuity of the Hausdorff dimension of measures with respect to measured Gromov--Hausdorff convergence and box convergence. We also examine the semicontinuity of other dimensions of measures, which are similar to the Hausdorff dimension of measures.

A finite set with noncompact closed convex hull in a Hadamard space

We show that there is a Hadamard space in which the closed convex hull of a set containing merely three points is noncompact, by providing an AI-generated construction. The seemingly innocuous problem of finding a compact or finite set with this property, or showing that none exists, was recorded by Gromov and periodically revisited by researchers in metric geometry, functional analysis, fixed-point theory, and geometric group theory. Nevertheless, it remained unanswered for over three decades. The construction itself is based on building an inductive sequence of CAT(1) metric graphs and taking the Euclidean cone over the limiting space. We discuss the history of this problem, the main ideas and details of the construction, and its relationship with existing techniques.

Metric foundations of geometry

A metric space is called all-set-homogeneous if every isometry between two of its subsets extends to an isometry of the whole space. We classify all-set-homogeneous geodesic spaces: besides the classical examples, they include the universal metric trees of finite valence. We also prove that every complete all-set-homogeneous length space is geodesic, and hence the same classification holds in this setting.
