In this paper, we introduce an asymmetric metric on the space of marked Euclidean triangles, and we prove several properties of this metric, including two equivalent definitions of this metric, one of them comparing ratios of functions of…

Ricci and sectional curvatures of twisted flux tubes in Riemannian manifold are computed to investigate the stability of the tubes. The geodesic equations are used to show that in the case of thick tubes, the curvature of planar (Frenet…

This paper presents a CFD study of Engine Combustion Network (ECN) Spray G, focusing on the transient characteristics of spray at start of injection. The Large Eddy Simulation (LES) coupled with Volume of Fluid (VOF) method is used to model…

A unit vector field on a Riemannian manifold $M$ is called geodesic if all of its integral curves are geodesics. We show, in the case of $M$ being a flat 3-manifold not equal to $\mathbb{E}^3$, that every such vector field is tangent to a…

In this paper, we establish the existence of an equidistributed sequence of nondegenerate closed geodesics for generic Finsler, symmetric Finsler and Riemannian metrics on every closed surface. The proof relies on the volume property of…

We prove that each complete flat cone metric on a surface, perhaps with boundary and punctures, can be triangulated with finitely many types of triangles. We derive Gauss-Bonnet formula for this kind of cone metrics. In addition, we prove…

We propose a new strong Riemannian metric on the manifold of (parametrized) embedded curves of regularity $H^s$, $s\in(3/2,2)$. We highlight its close relationship to the (generalized) tangent-point energies and employ it to show that this…

In the first part of this work we explore the geometry of infinite type surfaces and the relationship between its convex core and space of ends. In particular, we show that a geodesically complete hyperbolic surface is made up of its convex…

We give an accessible introduction and elaboration on the methods used in obtaining a geodesic, which is the curve of shortest length connecting two points lying on the surface of a function. This is found through computing what's known as…

By using a certain second order differential equation, the notion of adapted coordinates on Finsler manifolds is defined and some classifications of complete Finsler manifolds are found. Some examples of Finsler metrics, with positive…

Let $\mathscr{P}_{m}$ be the graph on the set of perfect matchings in the complete graph $K_{2m}$, where two perfect matchings are connected by an edge if their symmetric difference is a cycle of length four. This paper studies geodesics in…

A vector field on a Riemannian manifold is called geodesic if its integral curves are reparametrized geodesics. We classify compact K\"ahler manifolds admitting nontrivial real-holomorphic geodesic gradient vector fields that satisfy an…

We study the geodesic flow on the normal line congruence of a minimal surface in ${\Bbb{R}}^3$ induced by the neutral K\"ahler metric on the space of oriented lines. The metric is lorentz with isolated degenerate points and the flow is…

We construct examples of compact and one-ended constant mean curvature surfaces with large mean curvature in Riemannian manifolds with axial symmetry by gluing together small spheres positioned end-to-end along a geodesic. Such surfaces…

Algorithms for the computation of the forward and inverse geodesic problems for an ellipsoid of revolution are derived. These are accurate to better than 15 nm when applied to the terrestrial ellipsoids. The solutions of other problems…

Let $S^{n}$ be the $n$-sphere of constant positive curvature. For $n \geq 2$, we will show that a measure on the unit tangent bundle of $S^{2n}$, which is even and invariant under the geodesic flow, is not uniquely determined by its…

The geodesics in various spherical Rindler frames are investigated. A display of some kinematical quantities of the spacetime is given. The constant acceleration from the metric acts as the surface gravity of the horizon $r = 0$. The radial…

In the present paper, we find out necessary and sufficient conditions for a Finsler surface $(M,F)$ to be Landsbregian in terms of the Berwald curvature $2$-forms. We study Finsler surfaces which satisfy some flag curvature $K$ conditions,…

We study the problem of rigidity of closures of totally geodesic plane immersions in geometrically finite manifolds containing rank $1$ cusps. We show that the key notion of K-thick recurrence of horocycles fails generically in this…

We investigate the geodesics in the entire class of nonexpanding impulsive gravitational waves propagating in an (anti-)de Sitter universe using the distributional form of the metric. Employing a 5-dimensional embedding formalism and a…
