Riemannian isometries preserve distance #

A smooth Riemannian isometry preserves the length of each curve. Applying this fact to curves in both directions shows that it preserves the infimum of their lengths, even when that infimum is infinite because the points lie in different components. When the ambient extended distances are the Riemannian distances, the smooth isometry is also an isometry of extended metric spaces.

The geometric fact is the invariance of Riemannian distance under isometries; see J. M. Lee, Introduction to Riemannian Manifolds, 2nd ed., Chapter 2.

A smooth Riemannian isometry preserves Riemannian extended distance, including between points in distinct connected components.

A smooth Riemannian isometry between spaces equipped with their Riemannian extended distances is an isometry of extended metric spaces; in particular it coerces to M ≃ᵢ N.
