A space of stability conditions that is not a length space

Abstract

We prove that the space of Bridgeland stability conditions, when equipped with the canonical metric, is not a length space in general. This resolves a question posed by Kikuta in the negative. Furthermore, we introduce two modified metrics on the stability spaces, which may exhibit better metric properties.
