Differential geometry of grassmannians and the Plücker map [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2012
Using the Plucker map between grassmannians, we study basic aspects of classic grassmannian geometries. For `hyperbolic' grassmannian geometries, we prove some facts (for instance, that the Plucker map is a minimal isometric embedding) that were ...

Discrete Laplace cycles of period four

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2012
We study discrete conjugate nets whose Laplace sequence is of period four. Corresponding points of opposite nets in this cyclic sequence have equal osculating planes in different net directions, that is, they correspond in an asymptotic transformation ...

Singularities of generic line congruences [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Mathematical Society of Japan, 2021
Line congruences are 2-dimensional families of lines in 3space. The singularities that appear in generic line congruences are folds, cusps and swallowtails ([7]). In this paper we give a geometric description of these singularities. The main tool used is

Projective deformations of weakly orderable hyperbolic Coxeter orbifolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A Coxeter n‐orbifold is an n‐dimensional orbifold based on a polytope with silvered boundary facets. Each pair of adjacent facets meet on a ridge of some order m, whose neighborhood is locally modeled on R n modulo the dihedral group of order 2m ...

Benenti Tensors: A useful tool in Projective Differential Geometry

open access: yesComplex Manifolds, 2018
Two metrics are said to be projectively equivalent if they share the same geodesics (viewed as unparametrized curves). The degree of mobility of a metric g is the dimension of the space of the metrics projectively equivalent to g. For any pair of metrics

Hilbert geometry of polytopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
It is shown that the Hilbert metric on the interior of a convex polytope is bilipschitz to a normed vector space of the same dimension.Comment: 11 pages, minor changes, to appear in Archiv ...

On a Class of Two-Dimensional Douglas and Projectively Flat Finsler Metrics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper, we study a class of two-dimensional Finsler metrics defined by a Riemannian metric $\alpha$ and a 1-form $\beta$. We characterize those metrics which are Douglasian or locally projectively flat by some equations.

On higher Gauss maps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We prove that the general fibre of the $i$-th Gauss map has dimension $m$ if and only if at the general point the $(i+1)$-th fundamental form consists of cones with vertex a fixed $\mathbb P^{m-1}$, extending a known theorem for the usual Gauss map.

Differential Invariants of Conformal and Projective Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We show that, for both the conformal and projective groups, all the differential invariants of a generic surface in three-dimensional space can be written as combinations of the invariant derivatives of a single differential invariant. The proof is based
