Proximinality in geodesic spaces

From MaRDI portal
(Redirected from Publication:2472113)





A geodesic metric space is a CAT(0) space if it is geodesically connected, and all distances between points on the sides of a geodesic triangle are no larger than the distances between the corresponding points on any comparison triangle in the Euclidean plane. It is previously known that for any compact set C in a complete length space X without bifurcating geodesics, the nearest point projection of X onto C is properly single valued at most points of X. The authors show that the same is true for a closed subset of a complete CAT(0) space X, where X has the geodesic extension property and has Alexandrov curvature bounded below. The authors also show that if C is bounded and closed, then the set of points of X which have a unique farthest point in C is dense in X.
