Homogeneous geodesics in homogeneous Finsler spaces

open access: yes, 2007
In this paper, we study homogeneous geodesics in homogeneous Finsler spaces. We first give a simple criterion that characterizes geodesic vectors. We show that the geodesics on a Lie group, relative to a bi-invariant Finsler metric, are the cosets of the

On the Analytic Structure of Commutative Nilmanifolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In the classification theorems of Vinberg and Yakimova for commutative nilmanifolds, the relevant nilpotent groups have a very surprising analytic property.

Looking for K\"ahler- Einstein Structure on Cartan Spaces with Berwald connection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A Cartan manifold is a smooth manifold M whose slit cotangent bundle T*M0 is endowed with a regular Hamiltonian K which is positively homogeneous of degree 2 in momenta.

Approximability of convex bodies and volume entropy in Hilbert geometry

open access: yes, 2016
The approximability of a convex body is a number which measures the difficulty to approximate that body by polytopes. We prove that twice the approximability is equal to the volume entropy for a Hilbert geometry in dimension two end three and that in ...

Unique geodesics for Thompson's metric [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper a geometric characterization of the unique geodesics in Thompson's metric spaces is presented. This characterization is used to prove a variety of other geometric results.

Asymptotic volume in Hilbert Geometries

open access: yes, 2012
We prove that the metric balls of a Hilbert geometry admit a volume growth at least polynomial of degree their dimension. We also characterise the convex polytopes as those having exactly polynomial volume growth of degree their ...
