Arguably, geodesics are the most important geometric objects on a differentiable manifold. They describe candidates for shortest paths and are guaranteed to be unique shortest paths when the starting velocity stays within the so-called…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a reproducing kernel Hilbert space of functions on a set $X$. We study the problem of finding a minimal geodesic of the Grassmann manifold of $\mathcal{H}$ that joins two subspaces consisting of functions which vanish…

Let ${\cal A}$ be a von Neumann algebra and ${\cal P}_{\cal A}$ the manifold of projections in ${\cal A}$. There is a natural linear connection in ${\cal P}_{\cal A}$, which in the finite dimensional case coincides with the the Levi-Civita…

We give bounds on geodesic distances on the Stiefel manifold, derived from new geometric insights. The considered geodesic distances are induced by the one-parameter family of Riemannian metrics introduced by H\"uper et al. (2021), which…

The real symplectic Stiefel manifold is the manifold of symplectic bases of symplectic subspaces of a fixed dimension. It features in a large variety of applications in physics and engineering. In this work, we study this manifold with the…

Manifolds discovered by machine learning models provide a compact representation of the underlying data. Geodesics on these manifolds define locally length-minimising curves and provide a notion of distance, which are key for reduced-order…

Geodesics become an essential element of the geometry of a semi-Riemannian manifold. In fact, their differences and similarities with the (positive definite) Riemannian case, constitute the first step to understand semi-Riemannian Geometry.…

Let x and y be two (not necessarily distinct) points on a closed Riemannian manifold M of dimension n. According to a celebrated theorem by J.P. Serre there exist infinitely many geodesics between x and y. The length of the shortest of…

The geodesic complexity of a Riemannian manifold is a numerical isometry invariant that is determined by the structure of its cut loci. In this article we study decompositions of cut loci over whose components the tangent cut loci fiber in…

The length of the geodesic between two data points along a Riemannian manifold, induced by a deep generative model, yields a principled measure of similarity. Current approaches are limited to low-dimensional latent spaces, due to the…

We study geodesics in the Brownian map $(\mathcal{S},d,\nu)$, the random metric measure space which arises as the Gromov-Hausdorff scaling limit of uniformly random planar maps. Our results apply to all geodesics including those between…

Solving the so-called geodesic endpoint problem, i.e., finding a geodesic that connects two given points on a manifold, is at the basis of virtually all data processing operations, including averaging, clustering, interpolation and…

In this paper, we first evaluate topological distributions of the sets of all doubling spaces, all uniformly disconnected spaces, and all uniformly perfect spaces in the space of all isometry classes of compact metric spaces equipped with…

We provide an easy approach to the geodesic distance on the general linear group GL(n) for left-invariant Riemannian metrics which are also right-O(n)-invariant. The parametrization of geodesic curves and the global existence of length…

Let $M$ be a simply connected Riemannian manifold in $\mathscr{M}_{k,v}^D(n)$, the space of closed Riemannian manifolds of dimension $n$ with sectional curvature bounded below by $k$, volume bounded below by $v$, and diameter bounded above…

We study the high-dimensional limit of (projective) Stiefel and Grassmann manifolds as metric measure spaces in Gromov's topology. The limits are either the infinite-dimensional Gaussian space or its quotient by an mm-isomorphic group…

In many singular metric spaces, the regularity of a shortest-length curve is unknown. Algebraic varieties, or more generally sets defined by finitely many polynomial or real analytic equalities or inequalities, all locally partition into…

It is proved that the Gromov-Hausdorff metric on the space of compact metric spaces considered up to an isometry is strictly intrinsic, i.e., the corresponding metric space is geodesic. In other words, each two points of this space (each…

Let (X,\omega) be a compact K\"ahler manifold. As discovered in the late 1980s by Mabuchi, the set H_0 of K\"ahler forms cohomologous to \omega has the natural structure of an infinite dimensional Riemannian manifold. We address the…

We examine closed geodesics in the quotient of hyperbolic three space by the discrete group of isometries SL(2,Z[i]). There is a correspondence between closed geodesics in the manifold, the complex continued fractions originally studied by…
