&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;In [[mathematics]], the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Gromov product&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a concept in the theory of [[metric space]]s named after the  mathematician [[Mikhail Gromov (mathematician)|Mikhail Gromov]]. Intuitively, the Gromov product measures the distance for which two [[geodesic]]s starting at the same point remain &amp;quot;close together&amp;quot;. The Gromov product can also be used to define [[δ-hyperbolic space|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;amp;delta;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;-hyperbolic metric spaces]] in the sense of Gromov.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Definition==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;X&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;d&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) be a metric space and let &amp;#039;&amp;#039;x&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;amp;nbsp;∈&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;X&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. Then the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Gromov product&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039; at &amp;#039;&amp;#039;x&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, denoted (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039;)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;x&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;, is defined by&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(y, z)_{x} = \frac1{2} \big( d(x, y) + d(x, z) - d(y, z) \big).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Properties==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The Gromov product is symmetric: (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039;)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;x&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;amp;nbsp;=&amp;amp;nbsp;(&amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039;)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;x&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The Gromov product degenerates at the endpoints: (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039;)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;amp;nbsp;=&amp;amp;nbsp;(&amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039;)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;amp;nbsp;=&amp;amp;nbsp;0.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* For any points &amp;#039;&amp;#039;p&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;q&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;x&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;d(x, y) = (x, z)_{y} + (y, z)_{x},&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 \leq (y, z)_{x} \leq \min \big\{ d(y, x), d(z, x) \big\},&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\big| (y, z)_{p} - (y, z)_{q} \big| \leq d(p, q),&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\big| (x, y)_{p} - (x, z)_{p} \big| \leq d(y, z).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* As mentioned in the introduction, the Gromov product measures how long geodesics remain close together. Namely, if &amp;#039;&amp;#039;x&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are three points of a &amp;#039;&amp;#039;δ&amp;#039;&amp;#039;-hyperbolic metric space then the initial segments of length (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039;)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;x&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; of geodesics from &amp;#039;&amp;#039;x&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;x&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are no further than 2&amp;#039;&amp;#039;δ&amp;#039;&amp;#039; apart (in the sense of the [[Hausdorff distance]] between closed sets).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* In fact, the Gromov product can be used to define &amp;#039;&amp;#039;δ&amp;#039;&amp;#039;-hyperbolic spaces in the sense of Gromov: (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;X&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;d&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) is said to be &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;δ&amp;#039;&amp;#039;-hyperbolic&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; if, for all &amp;#039;&amp;#039;p&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;x&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;y&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;z&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in &amp;#039;&amp;#039;X&amp;#039;&amp;#039;,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(x, z)_{p} \geq \min \big\{ (x, y)_{p}, (y, z)_{p} \big\} - \delta.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
