On the Hausdorff Dimension of CAT(κ) Surfaces

open access: yesAnalysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces, 2016
We prove that a closed surface with a CAT(κ) metric has Hausdorff dimension = 2, and that there are uniform upper and lower bounds on the two-dimensional Hausdorff measure of small metric balls.

Closed simple geodesics on a polyhedron 

open access: yes, 2023
Abstract It is well-known that every isosceles tetrahedron (disphenoid) admits infinitely many simple closed geodesics on its surface. They can be naturally enumerated by pairs of coprime integers n > m > 1 with two additional cases (1, 0) and (1, 1).

Canonical Almost Geodesic Mappings of the First Type of Spaces with Affine Connections onto Generalized m-Ricci-Symmetric Spaces

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
In the paper we consider almost geodesic mappings of the first type of spaces with affine connections onto generalized 2-Ricci-symmetric spaces, generalized 3-Ricci-symmetric spaces, and generalized m-Ricci-symmetric spaces.

GEODESIC COMPLETENESS FOR SOBOLEV METRICS ON THE SPACE OF IMMERSED PLANE CURVES

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2014
We study properties of Sobolev-type metrics on the space of immersed plane curves. We show that the geodesic equation for Sobolev-type metrics with constant coefficients of order 2 and higher is globally well-posed for smooth initial data as well as for ...

On the determination of shifting operators along geodesics on a surface [PDF]

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2013
A procedure to obtain a closed form of the shifting operators along a known geodesic line on a surface as a solution of a system of linear algebraic equations is proposed.

Unduloids and their Closed Geodesics

open access: yes, 2012
We construct explicit parametrizations in terms of elliptic functions for unduloids depending on a parameter. We then use these parametrizations to study geodesics on unduloids. In particular, we use Maple to find interesting closed geodesics on unduloids.

Geodesic Mappings of Spaces with Affine Connections onto Generalized Symmetric and Ricci-Symmetric Spaces

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
In the paper, we consider geodesic mappings of spaces with an affine connections onto generalized symmetric and Ricci-symmetric spaces. In particular, we studied in detail geodesic mappings of spaces with an affine connections onto 2-, 3-, and m- (Ricci-)

Simple Closed Quasigeodesics on Tetrahedra

open access: yesInformation, 2022
Pogorelov proved in 1949 that every convex polyhedron has at least three simple closed quasigeodesics. Whereas a geodesic has exactly a π surface angle to either side at each point, a quasigeodesic has at most a π surface angle to either side at each ...

A Geodesic-Based Riemannian Gradient Approach to Averaging on the Lorentz Group

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
In this paper, we propose an efficient algorithm to solve the averaging problem on the Lorentz group O ( n , k ) . Firstly, we introduce the geometric structures of O ( n , k ) endowed with a Riemannian metric where geodesic could be ...
