Let M be a compact manifold. We show the identity component Homeo0(M)\mathrm{Homeo}_0(M) of the group of self-homeomorphisms of M has a well-defined quasi-isometry type, and study its large scale geometry. Through examples, we relate this large scale geometry to both the topology of M and the dynamics of group actions on M. T…

A topology on a set XX is the same as a projection (i.e. an idempotent linear operator) cl:2X2Xcl:2^X\to 2^X satisfying Acl(A)A\subset cl(A) for all AXA\subset X. That's a good way to summarize Kuratowski's closure operator. Basic geometry on a set XX is a dot product :2X×2X2Y\cdot:2^X\times 2^X\to 2^Y. Its equivalent form is an or…

In the framework of nonassociative geometry (hep-th/0003238) a unified description of continuum and discrete spacetime is proposed. In our approach at the Planck scales the spacetime is described as a so-called "diodular discrete structure" which at large spacetime scales `looks like' a differentiable manifold. After a…
