Products of hyperbolic spaces

Abstract

The class of uniformly smooth hyperbolic spaces was recently introduced by Pinto as a common generalization of both CAT(0) spaces and uniformly smooth Banach spaces, in a way that Reich's theorem on resolvent convergence could still be proven. We define products of such spaces, showing that they are reasonably well-behaved. In this manner, we provide the first example of a space for which Reich's theorem holds and which is neither a CAT(0) space, nor a convex subset of a normed space.
