This note pertains to isometric embeddings endowed with certain geometric properties. We study two embedding problems for a Riemannian manifold $M$ which is diffeomorphic to $\RR^n$ and admits a Bieberbach group $\Gamma$ acting by…
We consider $H$(eisenberg)-type groups whose law of left translation gives rise to a bracket generating distribution of step 2. In the contrast with sub-Riemannian studies we furnish the horizontal distribution with a nondegenerate…
In this thesis, we study extensions of the theory of Riemannian submanifolds in two directions. First, we will show how Riemannian geometry and submanifold theory in particular, can be generalized using the notion of 'Rinehart spaces', and…
In the geometrodynamical setting of general relativity in Lagrangian form, the objects of study are the {\it Riemannian} metrics (and their time derivatives) over a given 3-manifold $M$. It is our aim in this paper to study the gauge…
This work has two main purposes. The first aim is to study isotropic Riemannian maps as a generalization of isotropic immersions. For this purpose, the concept of isotropic Riemannian map is presented, an example is given and a…
The approximation of both geodesic distances and shortest paths on point cloud sampled from an embedded submanifold $\mathcal{M}$ of Euclidean space has been a long-standing challenge in computational geometry. Given a sampling resolution…
The present paper is devoted to the study of mappings with finite distortion on Riemannian manifolds. Theorems on local behavior of generalized quasiisometries with unbounded characteristic of quasiconformality are obtained.
We prove rigidity facts for groups acting on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds by preserving unparameterized geodesics.
For a compact subgroup $G$ of the group of isometries acting on a Riemannian manifold $M$ we investigate subspaces of Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin type which are invariant with respect to the group action. Our main aim is to extend the…
Similarity measures are widely used to interpret the representational geometries used by neural networks to solve tasks. Yet, because existing methods compare the extrinsic geometry of representations in state space, rather than their…
The spaces of Riemannian metrics on a closed manifold $M$ are studied. On the space ${\mathcal M}$ of all Riemannian metrics on $M$ the various weak Riemannian structures are defined and the corresponding connections are studied. The space…
We say that a Riemannian manifold M has rank at least k if every geodesic in M admits at least k parallel Jacobi fields. The Rank Rigidity Theorem of Ballmann and Burns-Spatzier, later generalized by Eberlein-Heber, states that a complete,…
Gromov proposed to extract the (differential) geometric content of a sub-riemannian space exclusively from its Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance. One of the most striking features of a regular sub-riemannian space is that it has at any point a…
A work of Manton showed how skymions may be viewed as maps between riemannian manifolds minimising an energy functional, with topologically non-trivial global minimisers given precisely by isometries. We consider a generalisation of this…
The purpose of this note is to show that a connection with closed skewsymmetric torsion and reducible holonomy admits a locally defined Riemannian submersion together with a projected geometry on the base. We reframe known submersion…
In this paper, we discuss the decomposition of a Lie group with a left invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric and the uniqueness. In fact, it is a decomposition of a Lie group into totally geodesic sub-manifolds which is different from the De…
The aim of this article is to present a comparative review of Riemannian and Finsler geometry. The structures of cut and conjugate loci on Riemannian manifolds have been discussed by many geometers including H. Busemann, M. Berger and W.…
Visual Place Recognition (VPR) demands representations robust to drastic environmental and viewpoint shifts. Existing aggregation paradigms either depend on extensive supervised training or rely on first-order pooling, often struggling to…
In this paper we develop an intrinsic formalism to study the topology, smooth structure, and Riemannian geometry of the Wasserstein space of a closed Riemannian manifold. Our formalism allows for a new characterisation of the Weak topology…
In this paper we study the minimal and maximal $L^{2}$-cohomology of oriented, possibly not complete, Riemannian manifolds. Our focus will be on both the reduced and the unreduced $L^{2}$-cohomology groups. In particular we will prove that…
