Abstract

Coarse geometry deals with the large-scale geometry of a space as opposed to its small-scale structure. This paper investigates the concept of coarse geometry and specifically studies the coarse geometry of spaces regularly encountered in real analysis. We construct a non-separable space that is coarse equivalent to the separable space L1([a,b],m).
