A result of Bangert states that the stable norm associated to any Riemannian metric on the $2$-torus $T^2$ is strictly convex. We demonstrate that the space of stable norms associated to metrics on $T^2$ forms a proper dense subset of the…
A geodesic bicombing on a metric space selects for every pair of points a geodesic connecting them. We prove existence and uniqueness results for geodesic bicombings satisfying different convexity conditions. In combination with recent work…

Metric learning aims to learn a highly discriminative model encouraging the embeddings of similar classes to be close in the chosen metrics and pushed apart for dissimilar ones. The common recipe is to use an encoder to extract embeddings…
