We show that our partial order is closed when metric measure spaces are equipped with the Gromov-weak topology and give a new characterization for the Lipschitz order. We will then consider some probabilistic applications. The main importance is given to the study of Fleming-Viot processes with different resampling rates. Besides that application we also consider tree-valued branching processes and two semigroups on metric measure spaces.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-05-29T11:05:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "metric measure spaces", "partial order", "lipschitz order", "gromov-weak topology", "probabilistic applications" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
