In this work we study differential geometry in $N$ dimensional Riemann curved spaces using Pfaff derivatives. Avoiding the classical partial derivative the Pfaff derivatives are constructed in a more sophisticated way and make evaluations…

We show Riemannian geometry could be studied by identifying the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{M}$ with a subbundle of the trivial bundle $\mathcal{M} \times \mathcal{E}$, obtained by embedding $\mathcal{M}$…

Given a space it is easy to obtain the system of geodesic equations on it. In this paper the inverse problem of reconstructing the space from the geodesic equations is addressed. A procedure is developed for obtaining the metric tensor from…

Traditional methods for solving physical equations in curved spaces, especially in fluid mechanics and general relativity, rely heavily on the use of Christoffel symbols. These symbols provide the necessary corrections to account for…

We describe how to approximate the Riemann curvature tensor as well as sectional curvatures on possibly infinite-dimensional shape spaces that can be thought of as Riemannian manifolds. To this end, we extend the variational time…

We propose a covariant definition of an inertia tensor on spatial hypersurfaces in general relativity, constructed via integrals of geodesic distance functions using the exponential map. In the ADM 3+1 decomposition, we consider a spacelike…

Using Gauss's square-roots of the metric components, the diagonal Riemann tensor components for diagonal metrics are calculated. The result is a form which makes their source in the metric directly intuitive and displays an intriguing…

Among a family of 2-parameter left invariant metrics on Sp(2), we determine which have nonnegative sectional curvatures and which are Einstein. On the quotiente $\widetilde{N}^{11}=(Sp(2)\times S^4)/S^3$, we construct a homogeneous…

The structure tensor method is often used for 2D and 3D analysis of imaged structures, but its results are in many cases very dependent on the user's choice of method parameters. We simplify this parameter choice in first order structure…

The Gaussian curvature of a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold is uniquely determined by the choice of the metric. The formulas for computing the curvature in terms of components of the metric, in isothermal coordinates, involve the…

In this paper, we propose a generalization of the Riemann curvature tensor on manifolds (of dimension two or higher) endowed with a Regge metric. Specifically, while all components of the metric tensor are assumed to be smooth within…

When generalizing schemes for real-valued data approximation or decomposition to data living in Riemannian manifolds, tangent space-based schemes are very attractive for the simple reason that these spaces are linear. An open challenge is…

In Riemann geometry, the relations among two transversal submanifolds and global manifold are discussed. By replacing the normal vector of a submanifold with the tangent vector of another submanifold, the metric tensors, Christoffel symbols…

The present article proposes a partial answer to the explicit inversion of the tensor tomography problem in two dimensions, by proving injectivity over certain kinds of tensors and providing reconstruction formulas for them. These tensors…

Consider a one-parameter family of smooth Riemannian metrics on a two-sphere, $\mathscr{S}$. By choosing a one-parameter family of smooth lapse and shift, these Riemannian two-spheres can always be assembled into smooth Riemannian…

This paper proposes an original Riemmanian geometry for low-rank structured elliptical models, i.e., when samples are elliptically distributed with a covariance matrix that has a low-rank plus identity structure. The considered geometry is…

The goal of the paper is to prove the equivalence of distributional and synthetic Ricci curvature lower bounds for a weighted Riemannian manifold with continuous metric tensor having Christoffel symbols in $L^2_{{\rm loc}}$, and with weight…

A simple differential analysis of issue of the correspondence between notion of geodesics in gravitation theory of GTR and straights of inertial motion in the Minkowski space-time discovers that, conventional certification of the geodesics…

Curvature and torsion are the two tensors characterizing a general Riemannian spacetime. In Einstein's general theory of gravitation, with torsion postulated to vanish and the affine connection identified to the Christoffel symbol, only the…

This paper deals with the computation of sectional curvature for the manifolds of $N$ landmarks (or feature points) in D dimensions, endowed with the Riemannian metric induced by the group action of diffeomorphisms. The inverse of the…
