Pseudo-Riemannian metrics with Levi-Civita connection in the projective class of a given torsion free affine connection can be obtained from (and are equivalent to) the maximal rank solutions of a certain overdetermined projectively…

We characterize uniform $k$-rectifiability in Euclidean spaces in terms of a Carleson-type geometric lemma for a new notion of flatness coefficients, which we call $\iota$-numbers. The characterization follows from an abstract statement…

Let $G$ be a connected, simply connected three-dimensional Lie group (unimodular or non-unimodular) equipped with a left-invariant (Riemannian or Lorentzian) metric $g$. By definition, the isometry group $\mathrm{Isom}(G, g)$ contains $G$…

In this paper, we discuss the decomposition of a Lie group with a left invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric and the uniqueness. In fact, it is a decomposition of a Lie group into totally geodesic sub-manifolds which is different from the De…

A main goal in the field of statistical shape analysis is to define computable and informative metrics on spaces of immersed manifolds, such as the space of curves in a Euclidean space. The approach taken in the elastic shape analysis…

The group-theoretic method for constructing symmetric isometric embeddings is used to describe all possible four-dimensional surfaces in flat $(1,9)$-dimensional space, whose induced metric is static and spherically symmetric. For such…

We consider a family of Riemannian manifolds M such that for each unit speed geodesic gamma of M there exists a distinguished bijective correspondence L between infinitesimal translations along gamma and infinitesimal rotations around it.…

In this paper we study geometries on the manifold of curves. We define a manifold $M$ where objects $c\in M$ are curves, which we parameterize as $c:S^1\to \real^n$ ($n\ge 2$, $S^1$ is the circle). Given a curve $c$, we define the tangent…

We investigate the geometry of the family $\cal M$ of isometry classes of compact metric spaces, endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff metric. We show that sufficiently small neighborhoods of generic finite spaces in the subspace of all finite…

In this paper we have build the modified Hamiltonian formalism for geometric objects like the Jacobi fields and metric tensors. In this approach Jacobi fields and metric tensors are mapped among manifold. As an application, we have mapped a…

Jet manifolds and vector bundles allow one to employ tools of differential geometry to study differential equations, for example those arising as equations of motions in physics. They are necessary for a geometrical formulation of…

The main motivation of this paper arises from the study of Carnot-Carath\'eodory spaces, where the class of 1-rectifiable sets does not contain smooth non-horizontal curves; therefore a new definition of rectifiable sets including…

We study curvature invariants of a sub-Riemannian manifold (i.e., a manifold with a Riemannian metric on a non-holonomic distribution) related to mutual curvature of several pairwise orthogonal subspaces of the distribution, and prove…

We study two aspects of the loop group formulation for isometric immersions with flat normal bundle of space forms. The first aspect is to examine the loop group maps along different ranges of the loop parameter. This leads to various…

This paper is concerned with basic geometric properties of the phase space of a classical general relativistic particle, regarded as the 1st jet space of motions, i.e. as the 1st jet space of timelike 1--dimensional submanifolds of…

The setting of metric spaces is very natural for numerous questions concerning manifolds, norms, and fractal sets, and a few of the main ingredients are surveyed here.

The aim of this paper is to construct natural geometrical objects on the 1-jet space J^1(T,R^5), where $T/subset R$, like a non-linear connection, a generalized Cartan connection, together with its d-torsions and d-curvatures, a jet…

A set of n non-collinear points in the Euclidean plane defines at least n different lines. Chen and Chv\'atal in 2008 conjectured that the same results is true in metric spaces for an adequate definition of line. More recently, this…

For a prime knot group, the classifying space for the family of the subgroups generated by the meridians can be seen as an abstract analogue of the ambient manifold in which the knot lives. An explicit model of this ambient classifying…

We study the isometry groups and Killing vector fields of a family of pseudo-Riemannian metrics on Euclidean space which have neutral signature (3+2p,3+2p). All are p+2 curvature homogeneous, all have vanishing Weyl scalar invariants, all…
