Weak geodesics on prox-regular subsets of Riemannian manifolds

Differential Geometry 2022-05-19 v1

Abstract

We give a definition of weak geodesics on prox-regular subsets of Riemannian manifolds as continuous curves with some weak regularities. Then obtaining a suitable Lipschitz constant of the projection map, we characterize weak geodesics on a prox-regular set with assigned end points as viscosity critical points of the energy functional.
