	Gromov-Hausdorff convergence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gromov-Hausdorff convergence is a notion for convergence of metric spaces which is a generalization of Hausdorff convergence.
		The notion of Gromov-Hausdorff convergence was first used by Gromov to prove that any discrete group with polynomial growth is almost nilpotent (i.e.
		The key ingredient in the proof was almost trivial observation that for the Cayley graph of a group with polynomial growth a sequence of rescalings converges in the pointed Gromov-Hausdorff sense.

		Hausdorff distance measures how far two compact subsets of a metric space are from each other.
		Hausdorff distance can be defined the same way for closed non-compact subsets of M, but in this case the distance may take infinite value and the topology of F(M) starts to depend on particular metric on M (not only on its topology).
		It gives a pre-metric (or pseudometric) on the set of all subsets of M (Hausdorff distance between any two sets and with the same closures is zero).

		I expect to apply this theory to the many situations already in view in the physics and mathematics of quantization where one has a sequence of quantum spaces which appear to be converging to another space, either quantum or classical.
		In most such situations of which I am aware, the present notions of convergence are either just heuristic, or quite weak.
		I believe that a quantum Gromov-Hausdorff convergence can often be applied to give a stronger form of convergence.

		She will then present examples demonstrating how the universal covers of converging sequences of metric spaces behave.
		In particular, if a sequence, $M_i$, of Riemannian manifolds converge to a metric space, $Y$, the universal covers of these $M_i$, denoted, $\tilde{M}_i$, need not even converge to a covering of $Y$.
		These covering spaces are shown to converge to a covering space of the limit space $Y$ when the $M_i$ are compact with a uniform upper bound on diameter.

		In particular, if a sequence of Riemannian manifolds converge to a metric space, Y, then the universal covers of these Riemannian manifolds need not even converge to a covering of $Y$.
		The main result states that if we have a converging sequence of compact manifolds with a uniform upper bound on diameter and lower bound on Ricci curvature, then their limit space has a universal cover.
		This universal cover is in fact a limit of special covers of the sequence of manifolds, which we call delta covers.

		Consider a sequence of pointed n-dimensional complete Riemannian manifolds {(M_i,g_i(t), O_i)} such that t in [0,T] are solutions to the Ricci flow and g_i(t) have uniformly bounded curvatures and derivatives of curvatures.
		Richard Hamilton showed that if the initial injectivity radii are uniformly bounded below then there is a subsequence which converges to an n-dimensional solution to the Ricci flow.
		Without injectivity radius bounds we must allow for convergence in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense to a space which is not a manifold but only a metric space.
