Pestov's Identity on frame bundles and applications

Differential Geometry 2014-12-25 v1

Abstract

In this article we lift Pestov's Identity on the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold MM to the bundle of kk-tuples of tangent vectors. We also derive an integrated version and a restriction to the frame bundle PkMP^kM of kk-frames. Finally, we discuss a dynamical application for the parallel transport on Gork(M)\mathcal{G}_{or}^k(M), the Grassmannian of oriented kk-planes of MM.
