Abstract

In this work, we study the geodesics of the space of certain geometrically and physically motivated subspaces of the space of immersed curves endowed with a first order Sobolev metric. This includes elastic curves and also an extension of some results on planar concentric circles to surfaces. The work focuses on intrinsic and constructive approaches.
