Branching geodesics in normed spaces

Izvestiya: Mathematics, 2002
Summary: We study branching extremals of length functionals on normed spaces. This is a natural generalization of the Steiner problem in normed spaces. We obtain criteria for a network to be extremal under deformations that preserve the topology of networks as well as under deformations with splitting. We discuss the connection between locally shortest

The Monge Problem in Geodesic Spaces

2011
We address the Monge problem in metric spaces with a geodesic distance: (X, d) is a Polish non branching geodesic space. We show that we can reduce the transport problem to 1-dimensional transport problems along geodesics. We introduce an assumption on the transport problem π which implies that the conditional probabilities of the first marginal on ...

On Geodesics in Euclidean Shape Spaces

Journal of the London Mathematical Society, 1991
The geometry of the shape spaces \(\Sigma_ m^ k\) has been developed in [\textit{D. G. Kendall}, Bull. Lond. Math. Soc. 16, 81-121 (1984; Zbl 0579.62100); \textit{T.K. Carne}, Proc. Lond. Math. Soc., III. Ser. 61, No. 2, 407-432 (1990; Zbl 0723.60014)] and in a recent joint paper of the author and D. Kendall.

On a Class of Geodesics in Teichmuller Space

The Annals of Mathematics, 1975
The study of the geometry of the classical Teichmiiller spaces was begun in 1959 by Kravetz [9]. The starting point was the classical theorem of TeichmUller on extremal quasiconformal maps between compact Riemann surfaces. The TeichmUller theorem was used to argue that with respect to the Teichmiiller metric, TeichmUller space is straight and that it ...

Generalised geodesics in a Riemannian space

Bulletin de la Classe des sciences, 1967
Asymptotic lines of order p have been defined by Hayden in [1]. In this paper we define geodesies of order p, investigate their properties and establish their relationship with the asymptotic lines of order p.

Geodesics on loop spaces

Journal of Geometry and Physics, 1993
The space of smooth embedded loops \(E(S^ 1,M) \subset C^ \infty(S^ 1,M)\) in a Riemannian manifold \((M,g)\) carries a (weak) Riemannian metric \[ G(\gamma)(s_ 1,s_ 2) = \int_{S^ 1} g(s_ 1(t),s_ 2(t))\text{vol}(\gamma^* g)(t), \] where \(s_ i \in T_ \gamma C^ \infty(S^ 1,M)\) `is' the space of all vector fields along \(\gamma\), which is invariant ...
