    The author studies relations between geometrical properties of a causal space-time and Lorentz metrics. It is proven that the global hyperbolicity of the so-called distinguishing space-time occurs if and only if the space satisfies the finiteness condition of the Lorentz distance function.NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl 0935.00013].
