چکیده
We present an extension of the Gromov-Hausdorff metric on the set of compact metric spaces: the Gromov-Hausdorff-Prokhorov metric on the set of compact metric spaces endowed with a finite measure. We then extend it to the non-compact case by describing a metric on the set of rooted complete locally compact length spaces endowed with a boundedly finite measure. We prove that this space with the extended Gromov-Hausdorff-Prokhorov metric is a Polish space. This generalization is needed to define Lévy trees, which are (possibly unbounded) random real trees endowed with a boundedly finite measure.

A Note on Gromov-hausdorff-prokhorov Distance between (locally) Compact Measure Spaces

متن کاملC∗-algebraic Quantum Gromov-hausdorff Distance
We introduce a new quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance between C∗-algebraic compact quantum metric spaces. Because it is able to distinguish algebraic structures, this new distance fixes a weakness of Rieffel’s quantum distance. We show that this new quantum distance has properties analogous to the basic properties of the classical Gromov-Hausdorff distance, and we give criteria for when a parame...
متن کاملRiemannian manifolds , spaces of measures and the Gromov - Hausdorff distance ∗
We equip the space M(X) of all Borel probability measures an a compact Riemannian manifold X with a canonical distance function which induces the weak-∗ topology on M(X) and has the following property: the map X 7→ M(X) is Lipschitz continous with respect to the Gromov-Hausdorff distance on the space of all the (isometry classes of) compact metric spaces. Introduction Last century brought sever...
متن کاملGeneric Properties of Compact Metric Spaces
We prove that there is a residual subset of the Gromov-Hausdorff space (i.e. the space of all compact metric spaces up to isometry endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff distance) whose points enjoy several unexpected properties. In particular, they have zero lower box dimension and infinite upper box dimension.
متن کاملA polynomial-time relaxation of the Gromov-Hausdorff distance
The Gromov-Hausdorff distance provides a metric on the set of isometry classes of compact metric spaces. Unfortunately, computing this metric directly is believed to be computationally intractable. Motivated by applications in shape matching and point-cloud comparison, we study a semidefinite programming relaxation of the Gromov-Hausdorff metric. This relaxation can be computed in polynomial ti...
