An enquiry into the physical nature of time and space and into the ontology of quantum mechanics from a metageometric perspective, resulting from the belief that geometric thought and language are powerless to farther understanding of these…
Metrics in Grassmannians, or distances between subspaces of same dimension, have many uses, and extending them to the Total Grassmannian of subspaces of different dimensions is an important problem, as usual extensions lack good properties…
A geometry with parallel skew-symmetric torsion is a Riemannian manifold carrying a metric connection with parallel skew-symmetric torsion. Besides the trivial case of the Levi-Civita connection, geometries with non-vanishing parallel…
We seek for an alternative to the metric tensor $g_{\mu\nu}$ as a fundamental geometrical object in four-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. We suggest that the metric tensor $g_{\mu\nu}(P)$ at a given point $P$ of a manifold may be replaced…
The standard analytical approach for studying gravity free-surface waves generated by a moving body often relies upon a linearization of the physical geometry, where the body is considered asymptotically small in one or several of its…
We introduce the geodesic complexity of a metric space, inspired by the topological complexity of a topological space. Both of them are numerical invariants, but, while the TC only depends on the homotopy type, the GC is an invariant under…
Mathematical descriptions of dynamical systems are deeply rooted in topological spaces defined by non-Euclidean geometry. This paper proposes leveraging structure-rich geometric spaces for machine learning to achieve structural…
The geometrical formulation of gravity is not unique and can be set up in a variety of spacetimes. Even though the gravitational sector enjoys this freedom of different geometrical interpretations, consistent matter couplings have to be…
Any procedure applied to data, and any quantity derived from data, is required to respect the nature and symmetries of the data. This axiom applies to refinement procedures and multiresolution transforms as well as to more basic operations…
A geometric triangulation of a Riemannian manifold is a triangulation where the interior of each simplex is totally geodesic. Bistellar moves are local changes to the triangulation which are higher dimensional versions of the flip operation…
Geometric mechanics is a branch of mathematical physics that studies classical mechanics of particles and fields from the point of view of geometry. In a geometric language, symmetries can be expressed in a natural manner as vector fields…
Consider a 3$-$dimensional manifold $N$ obtained by gluing a finite number of ideal hyperbolic tetrahedra via isometries along their faces. By varying the isometry type of each tetrahedron but keeping fixed the gluing pattern we define a…
Here is presented a concept of centrogeometry which can be seen as a combination of the concept of point-like observer with an idea of Poincar\'{e}'s that different geometries are principally equivalent. As it is to be shown later, all…
We study the geometrical properties of the utility space (the space of expected utilities over a finite set of options), which is commonly used to model the preferences of an agent in a situation of uncertainty. We focus on the case where…
The present work represents a step to deal with stellar structure using a pure geometric approach. A geometric field theory is used to construct a model for a spherically symmetric configuration. The model obtained can be considered as a…
The space of embedded submanifolds plays an important role in applications such as computational anatomy and shape analysis. We can define two different classes on Riemannian metrics on this space: so-called outer metrics are metrics that…
Since the 1970s contact geometry has been recognized as an appropriate framework for the geometric formulation of the state properties of thermodynamic systems, without, however, addressing the formulation of non-equilibrium thermodynamic…
A new geometrically exact micro-structured model is constructed using a generalisation of the notion of Riemann-Cartan manifolds and fibre bundle theory of rank 3. This model is based around the concept of two different length scales: a…
One of the best things about geometry is that it's cool! Geometry enables us to create incredible designs and astounding patterns. This article shows how to use a simple technique (iteration) to create designs that are both cool and…
We formulate an approach to the geometry of Riemann-Cartan spaces provided with nonholonomic distributions defined by generic off-diagonal and nonsymmetric metrics inducing effective nonlinear and affine connections. Such geometries can be…
