We study collections of exact Lagrangian submanifolds respecting some uniform Riemannian bounds, which we equip with a metric naturally arising in symplectic topology (e.g. the Lagrangian Hofer metric or the spectral metric). We exhibit…

A diffeomorphism of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds is called sectional curvature preserving if it preserves the sectional curvature of all the nondegenerate 2-planes. We consider a similar condition for degenerate 2-planes and we prove that…

Effective field theories with explicit Lorentz violation are intimately linked to Riemann-Finsler geometry. The quadratic single-fermion restriction of the Standard-Model Extension provides a rich source of pseudo-Riemann-Finsler spacetimes…

A study is made of linear isometries on Fr\'echet spaces for which the metric is given in terms of a sequence of seminorms. This establishes sufficient conditions on the growth of the function that defines the metric in terms of the…

Through making use of a Borel measure and a piecewise-Riemannian inner scalar product, it is shown that over a Lorentzian manifold every three diffeomorphisms generate a conformal space, whose elements are smooth vector-valued functions…

In this paper, we propose the Fourier Discrepancy Function, a new discrepancy to compare discrete probability measures. We show that this discrepancy takes into account the geometry of the underlying space. We prove that the Fourier…

This paper introduces a new metric and mean on the set of positive semidefinite matrices of fixed-rank. The proposed metric is derived from a well-chosen Riemannian quotient geometry that generalizes the reductive geometry of the positive…

Baez-Duarte reformulated the Riemann hypothesis as a statement about a Hilbert space distance, involving the integer dilations of the "fractional part" function. Under the assumption of the Riemann hypothesis, we improve on the currently…

A diffeological space is a set equipped with a smooth structure, known as a diffeology, which allows us to extend certain notions from manifolds to these more general spaces. We study a generalized notion of tangent space to a point of a…

We consider spacetime to be a 4-dimensional differentiable manifold that can be split locally into time and space. No metric, no linear connection are assumed. Matter is described by classical fields/fluids. We distinguish electrically…

Riemannian and pseudo-Riemannian symmetric spaces with semisimple transvection group are known and classified for a long time. Contrary to that the description of pseudo-Riemannian symmetric spaces with non-semisimple transvection group is…

In this note we discuss the geometry of Riemannian surfaces having a discrete set of singular points. We assume the conformal structure extends through the singularities and the curvature is integrable. Such points are called \emph{simple…

We consider a $3$-dimensional differentiable manifold with two circulant structures -- a Riemannian metric and an additional structure, whose third power is the identity. The structure is compatible with the metric such that an isometry is…

A weak metric on a set is a function that satisfies the axioms of a metric except the symmetry and the separation axioms. In the present paper we introduced a weak metric, called the Apollonian weak metric, on any subset of a Euclidean…

Local and global illumination were recently defined in Riemannian manifolds to visualize classical Non-Euclidean spaces. This work focuses on Riemannian metric construction in $\mathbb{R}^3$ to explore special effects like warping, mirages,…

We study unimodular measures on the space $\mathcal M^d$ of all pointed Riemannian $d$-manifolds. Examples can be constructed from finite volume manifolds, from measured foliations with Riemannian leaves, and from invariant random subgroups…

We prove Wadsley's theorem for foliations by closed non-lightlike geodesics. As an application we show that every pseudo-Riemannian and non-Riemannian 2-mainfold, all of whose time- or spacelike geodesics are closed, is diffeomorphic to…

These notes on Riemannian geometry use the bases bundle and frame bundle, as in Geometry of Manifolds, to express the geometric structures. It has more problems and omits the background material. It starts with the definition of Riemannian…

We give conditions on a diffeological group $G$ and a normal subgroup $H$ under which the quotient group $G/H$ differentiates to a Lie algebra for which $\operatorname{Lie}(G/H) \cong \operatorname{Lie}(G)/\operatorname{Lie}(H)$. Our Lie…

The Grassmannian of affine subspaces is a natural generalization of both the Euclidean space, points being zero-dimensional affine subspaces, and the usual Grassmannian, linear subspaces being special cases of affine subspaces. We show…
