Description

Book Synopsis
Coarse geometry is the study of spaces (particularly metric spaces) from a 'large scale' point of view, so that two spaces that look the same from a great distance are actually equivalent. This book provides a general perspective on coarse structures. It discusses results on asymptotic dimension and uniform embeddings into Hilbert space.

Table of Contents
Metric spaces Coarse spaces Growth and amenability Translation algebras Coarse algebraic topology Coarse negative curvature Limits of metric spaces Rigidity Asymptotic dimension Groupoids and coarse geometry Coarse embeddability Bibliography.
