The regularity of limit spaces of Riemannian manifolds with L^p curvature bounds, $p > n/2$, is investigated under no apriori non-collapsing assumption. A regular subset, defined by a local volume growth condition for a limit measure, is…

We are concerned with the global weak continuity of the Cartan structural system -- or equivalently, the Gauss--Codazzi--Ricci system -- on semi-Riemannian manifolds with lower regularity. For this purpose, we first formulate and prove a…

We study a data-driven sub-Riemannian (SR) curve optimization model for connecting local orientations in orientation lifts of images. Our model lives on the projective line bundle $\mathbb{R}^{2} \times P^{1}$, with $P^{1}=S^{1}/_{\sim}$…
