On the space of compact diamonds of Lorentzian length spaces

Abstract

In this work we introduce the taxicab and uniform products for Lorentzian pre-length spaces. We further use these concepts to endow the space D(R×TX) of causal diamonds with a Lorentzian length space structure, closely relating its causal properties with its geometry as a metric space furnished with its associated Hausdorff distance. Among the general results, we show that this space is geodesic and globally hyperbolic for a complete length space (X, d).
