The Binet-Legendre Metric in Finsler Geometry [PDF]

open access: yesGeometry & Topology, 2012
For every Finsler metric $F$ we associate a Riemannian metric $g_F$ (called the Binet-Legendre metric). The transformation $F \mapsto g_F$ is $C^0$-stable and has good smoothness properties, in contrast to previous constructions.

Metrics for Probabilistic Geometries [PDF]

open access: yesCoRR, 2014
We investigate the geometrical structure of probabilistic generative dimensionality reduction models using the tools of Riemannian geometry. We explicitly define a distribution over the natural metric given by the models. We provide the necessary algorithms to compute expected metric tensors where the distribution over mappings is given by a Gaussian ...

Metric geometry of spaces of persistence diagrams. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Appl Comput Topol
AbstractPersistence diagrams are objects that play a central role in topological data analysis. In the present article, we investigate the local and global geometric properties of spaces of persistence diagrams. In order to do this, we construct a family of functors $${\mathcal {D}}_p$$ D p

Canonical differential geometry of string backgrounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
String backgrounds and D-branes do not possess the structure of Lorentzian manifolds, but that of manifolds with area metric. Area metric geometry is a true generalization of metric geometry, which in particular may accommodate a B-field.

The Gromov–Wasserstein Distance: A Brief Overview

open access: yesAxioms, 2014
We recall the construction of the Gromov–Wasserstein distance and concentrate on quantitative aspects of the definition.

The Dual Gromov-Hausdorff Propinquity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Motivated by the quest for an analogue of the Gromov-Hausdorff distance in noncommutative geometry which is well-behaved with respect to C*-algebraic structures, we propose a complete metric on the class of Leibniz quantum compact metric spaces, named ...

Algebroids, AKSZ Constructions and Doubled Geometry

open access: yesComplex Manifolds, 2021
We give a self-contained survey of some approaches aimed at a global description of the geometry underlying double field theory. After reviewing the geometry of Courant algebroids and their incarnations in the AKSZ construction, we develop the theory of ...

Area metric gravity and accelerating cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Area metric manifolds emerge as effective classical backgrounds in quantum string theory and quantum gauge theory, and present a true generalization of metric geometry. Here, we consider area metric manifolds in their own right, and develop in detail the

COARSE AND FINE GEOMETRY OF THE THURSTON METRIC

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2020
We study the geometry of the Thurston metric on the Teichmüller space of hyperbolic structures on a surface $S$. Some of our results on the coarse geometry of this metric apply to arbitrary surfaces $S$ of finite type; however, we focus particular ...
