Convexity and Geodesic Metric Spaces

Authors

Abstract:

In this paper, we first present a preliminary study on metric segments and geodesics in metric spaces. Then we recall the concept of d-convexity of sets and functions in the sense of Menger and study some properties of d-convex sets and d-convex functions as well as extreme points and faces of d-convex sets in normed spaces. Finally we study the continuity of d-convex functions in geodesic metric spaces.

Geodesic metric spaces and generalized nonexpansive multivalued mappings

In this paper, we present some common fixed point theorems for two generalized nonexpansive multivalued mappings in CAT(0) spaces as well as in UCED Banach spaces. Moreover, we prove the existence of fixed points for generalized nonexpansive multivalued mappings in complete geodesic metric spaces with convex metric for which the asymptotic center of a bounded sequence in a bounded closed convex...

Riemannian Barycentres and Geodesic Convexity Riemannian Barycentres and Geodesic Convexity

Consider a closed subset of a Riemannian manifold, such that all geodesics with end-points in the subset are contained in the subset, and the subset has boundary of codimension one. Is it the case that Riemannian barycentres of probability measures supported by the subset must also lie in the subset? It is shown that this is the case for 2-manifolds but not the case in higher dimensions: a coun...

Ramified Optimal Transportation in Geodesic Metric Spaces

An optimal transport path may be viewed as a geodesic in the space of probability measures under a suitable family of metrics. This geodesic may exhibit a tree-shaped branching structure in many applications such as trees, blood vessels, draining and irrigation systems. Here, we extend the study of ramified optimal transportation between probability measures from Euclidean spaces to a geodesic ...

Ball Versus Distance Convexity of Metric Spaces

We consider two different notions of convexity of metric spaces, namely (strict/uniform) ball convexity and (strict/uniform) distance convexity. Our main theorem states that (strict/uniform) distance convexity is preserved under a fairly general product construction, whereas we provide an example which shows that the same does not hold for (strict/uniform) ball convexity, not even when consider...

Near convexity, metric convexity, and convexity

It is shown that a subset of a uniformly convex normed space is nearly convex if and only if its closure is convex. Also, a normed space satisfying a mild completeness property is strictly convex if and only if every metrically convex subset is convex. 1 Classical and constructive mathematics The arguments in this paper conform to constructive mathematics in the sense of Errett Bishop. This mea...
