| Abstract | A fundamental question of metric embedding is whether the metric dimension of a metric space is related to its intrinsic dimension. That is whether the dimension in which it can be embedded in some real normed space is implied by the intrinsic dimension which is reflected by the inherent geometry of the space. The existence of such an embedding was conjectured by Assouad and was later posed as an open problem by others. This question is tightly related to a major goal of many practical application fields: developing tools to represent intrinsically low dimensional metric data sets in a succinct manner. In this paper we give the first algorithmic technique with formal guarantees for finding faithful and low dimensional representations of data lying in high dimensional space. Our main theorem states that every finite metric space X embeds into Euclidean space with dimension O(dim(X)/∈) and distortion O(log $^{1+ε}n),$ where dim(X) is the doubling dimension of the space X. Moreover, we show that X can be embedded into dimension Õ(dim(X)) with constant average distortion and $l_{q}-distortion$ for any q < ∞. Our technique also provides a dimension-distortion tradeoff and an extension of Assouad's theorem, providing distance oracles that improve known construction when dim(X) = o(log |X|). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
