We propose a new method to define theories of random geometries, using an explicit and simple map between metrics and large hermitian matrices. We outline some of the many possible applications of the formalism. For example, a…

Motivated by the work of Cappell, Deturck, Gluch and Miller, we extend the notion of cohomology of harmonic forms (of a compact manifold with boundary) to the abstract setting of Hilbert complexes. Then, we present some geometric…

We study analysis over infinite dimensional manifolds consisted by sequences of almost K\"ahler manifolds. In particular we develop moduli theory of pseudo holomorphic curves into the spaces with high symmetry. As applications, we study…

The paper is devoted to the study of geodesic orbit Riemannian spaces that could be characterize by the property that any geodesic is an orbit of a 1-parameter group of isometries. The main result is the classification of compact simply…

This is a self-contained introduction to quantum Riemannian geometry based on quantum groups as frame groups, and its proposed role in quantum gravity. Much of the article is about the generalisation of classical Riemannian geometry that…

The main subject of this expository paper is a connection between Gromov's filling volumes and a boundary rigidity problem of determining a Riemannian metric in a compact domain by its boundary distance function. A fruitful approach is to…

We relate rational integrals of the geodesic flow of a (pseudo-)Riemannian metric to relative Killig tensors, describe the spaces they span and discuss upper bounds on their dimensions.

We consider geometries on the space of Riemannian metrics conformally equivalent to the widely studied Ebin L^2 metric. Among these we characterize a distinguished metric that can be regarded as a generalization of Calabi's metric on the…

Riemannian geometry provides the fundamental framework for optimization on nonlinear spaces such as matrix manifolds, which arise in machine learning, signal processing, and robotics. While the underlying theory is classical, existing…

The space of all Riemannian metrics on a smooth second countable finite dimensional manifold is itself a smooth manifold modeled on the space of symmetric (0,2)-tensor fields with compact support. It carries a canonical Riemannian metric…

Over the past six years, a detailed framework has been constructed to unravel the quantum nature of the Riemannian geometry of physical space. A review of these developments is presented at a level which should be accessible to graduate…

For a complete noncompact connected Riemannian manifold with bounded geometry, we prove the existence of isoperimetric regions in a larger space obtained by adding finitely many limit manifolds at infinity. As one of many possible…

In this article we introduce a diffeomorphism-invariant Riemannian metric on the space of vector valued one-forms. The particular choice of metric is motivated by potential future applications in the field of functional data and shape…

Riemannian symmetric spaces are fundamental objects in finite dimensional differential geometry. An important problem is the construction of symmetric spaces for generalizations of simple Lie groups, especially their closest infinite…

Analogously to the concept of a curvature of curve and surface, in the differential geometry, in the main part of this paper the concept of the curvature of the hyper-dimensional vector spaces of Riemannian metric is generally defined. The…

We show how Alesker's theory of valuations on manifolds gives rise to an algebraic picture of the integral geometry of any Riemannian isotropic space. We then apply this method to give a thorough account of the integral geometry of the…

We consider submanifolds into Riemannian manifold with metallic structures. We obtain some new results for hypersurfaces in these spaces and we express the fundamental theorem of submanifolds into products spaces in terms of metallic…

Recent links between Finsler Geometry and the geometry of spacetimes are briefly revisited, and prospective ideas and results are explained. Special attention is paid to geometric problems with a direct motivation in Relativity and other…

This paper reviews several Riemannian metrics and evolution equations in the context of diffeomorphic shape analysis. After a short review of of various approaches at building Riemannian spaces of shapes, with a special focus on the…

Let $M$, $N$ be finite-dimensional manifolds with $M$ compact. This paper looks at the Riemnannian geometry on the space $C^\infty(M,N)$ of smooth maps equipped with the $L^2$-Riemannian metric. This metric was used by Ebin and Marsden in…
