We study the asymptotic behavior of geodesics near the boundary of a conformally compact Riemannian manifold $(X,g)$. In the case where the sectional curvature at infinity is constant (the asymptotically hyperbolic case) it is known that…

We consider the weighted Radon transforms $R_W$ along hyperplanes in $R^d, \, d \geq 3$, with strictly positive weights $W = W (x, \theta), \, x \in R^d, \, \theta \in S^{d-1}$. We construct an example of such a transform with non-trivial…

If a catenoid is inverted in any interior point, a deflated compact geometry is obtained which touches at two points (its poles). The catenoid is a minimal surface and, as such, is an equilibrium shape of a symmetric fluid membrane. The…

We consider the X-ray transform in a projective space over a finite field. It is well known (after E. Bolker) that this transform is injective. We formulate an analog of I.M. Gelfand's admissibility problem for the Radon transform, which…

This paper sheds light on the essential characteristics of geodesics, which frequently occur in considerations from motion in Euclidean space. Focus is mainly on a method of obtaining them from the calculus of variations, and an explicit…

In this article we characterize the range of the attenuated and non-attenuated $X$-ray transform of compactly supported symmetric tensor fields in the Euclidean plane. The characterization is in terms of a Hilbert-transform associated with…

Geodesic nets are types of graphs in Riemannian manifolds where each edge is a geodesic segment. One important object used in the construction of geodesic nets is a balanced vertex, where the sum of unit tangent vectors along adjacent edges…

Recently, several new characteristics have been introduced to describe null geodesic structure of strong gravitational field, such as photon regions, transversely trapping surfaces and some generalizations. They give an alternative and…

Given a Lorentzian manifold, the light ray transform of a function is its integrals along null geodesics. This paper is concerned with the injectivity of the light ray transform on functions and tensors, up to the natural gauge for the…
