Transversality Conditions for Geodesics on the Statistical Manifold of Multivariate Gaussian Distributions

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
We consider the problem of finding the closest multivariate Gaussian distribution on a constraint surface of all Gaussian distributions to a given distribution.

Closed Locally Minimal Networks on the Surfaces of Convex Polyhedra

open access: yesМоделирование и анализ информационных систем, 2013
Closed locally minimal networks can be viewed as “branching” closed geodesics. We study such networks on the surfaces of convex polyhedra and discuss the problem of describing the set of all convex polyhedra that have such networks.

Rank inequality in homogeneous Finsler geometry [PDF]

open access: yesAUT Journal of Mathematics and Computing, 2021
This is a survey on some recent progress in homogeneous Finsler geometry. Three topics are discussed, the classification of positively curved homogeneous Finsler spaces, the geometric and topological properties of homogeneous Finsler spaces satisfying $K\

Mean Estimation on the Diagonal of Product Manifolds

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2022
Computing sample means on Riemannian manifolds is typically computationally costly, as exemplified by computation of the Fréchet mean, which often requires finding minimizing geodesics to each data point for each step of an iterative optimization scheme.

Counting geodesics of given commutator length

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2023
Let $\Sigma $ be a closed hyperbolic surface. We study, for fixed g, the asymptotics of the number of those periodic geodesics in $\Sigma $ having at most length L and which can be written as the product of g commutators.

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 ...

Stable Geodesic Surface Signatures

open access: yesTsinghua Science and Technology, 2012
Shape analysis plays a fundamental role in computer graphics. We present a novel global and intrinsic shape representation for shape analysis, called stable geodesic signature.
