Geodesic walks in polytopes [PDF]
We introduce the geodesic walk for sampling Riemannian manifolds and apply it to the problem of generating uniform random points from polytopes in R^n specified by m inequalities. The walk is a discrete-time simulation of a stochastic differential equation (SDE) on the Riemannian manifold equipped with the metric induced by the Hessian of a convex ...

Characterizing Round Spheres Using Half-Geodesics [PDF]
A half-geodesic is a closed geodesic realizing the distance between any pair of its points. All geodesics in a round sphere are half-geodesics. Conversely, this note establishes that Riemannian spheres with all geodesics closed and sufficiently many half-

Length Modelling of Spiral Superficial Soft Strain Sensors Using Geodesics and Covering Spaces
Piecewise constant curvature soft actuators can generate various types of movements. These actuators can undergo extension, bending, rotation, twist, or a combination of these.

Duality on Geodesics of Cartan Distributions and Sub-Riemannian Pseudo-Product Structures
Given a five dimensional space endowed with a Cartan distribution, the abnormal geodesics form another five dimensional space with a cone structure. Then it is shown in (15), that, if the cone structure is regarded as a control system, then the space of ...

Closed geodesics on reversible Finsler 2-spheres
51 pages, 4 figuresWe extend two celebrated theorems on closed geodesics of Riemannian 2-spheres to the larger class of reversible Finsler 2-spheres: Lusternik-Schnirelmann's theorem asserting the existence of three simple closed geodesics, and Bangert ...
