Deformations of Anosov subgroups: Limit cones and growth indicators
Abstract Let G$G$ be a connected semisimple real algebraic group. We prove that limit cones vary continuously under deformations of Anosov subgroups of G$G$ under a certain convexity assumption, which turns out to be necessary. We apply this result to the notion of sharpness for the action of a discrete subgroup on a non‐Riemannian homogeneous space ...

Random walk on sphere packings and Delaunay triangulations in arbitrary dimension
Abstract We prove that random walks on a family of tilings of d$d$‐dimensional Euclidean space, with a canonical choice of conductances, converge to Brownian motion modulo time parameterization. This class of tilings includes Delaunay triangulations (the dual of Voronoi tessellations) and sphere packings.

Closed geodesics and the first Betti number
Abstract We prove that, on any closed manifold of dimension at least two with non‐zero first Betti number, a C∞$C^\infty$ generic Riemannian metric has infinitely many closed geodesics, and indeed closed geodesics of arbitrarily large length. We derive this existence result combining a theorem of Mañé together with the following new theorem of ...

Asymptotics of quantum 6j$6j$‐symbols and generalized hyperbolic tetrahedra
Abstract We establish the geometry behind the quantum 6j$6j$‐symbols under only the admissibility conditions as in the definition of the Turaev–Viro invariants of 3‐manifolds. As a classification, we show that the 6‐tuples in the quantum 6j$6j$‐symbols give in a precise way to the dihedral angles of (1) a spherical tetrahedron, (2) a generalized ...

Some elementary observations regarding reductive Cartan geometries
After defining generalizations of the notions of covariant derivatives and geodesics from Riemannian geometry for reductive Cartan geometries in general, various results for reductive Cartan geometries analogous to important elementary results from ...

Legendrian non‐isotopic unit conormal bundles in high dimensions
Abstract For any compact connected submanifold K$K$ of Rn$\mathbb {R}^n$, let ΛK$\Lambda _K$ denote its unit conormal bundle, which is a Legendrian submanifold of the unit cotangent bundle of Rn$\mathbb {R}^n$. In this paper, we give examples of pairs (K0,K1)$(K_0,K_1)$ of compact connected submanifolds of Rn$\mathbb {R}^n$ such that ΛK0$\Lambda _{K_0}$

A note on closed vector fields
Special vector fields, such as conformal vector fields and Killing vector fields, are commonly used in studying the geometry of a Riemannian manifold. Though there are Riemannian manifolds, which do not admit certain conformal vector fields or certain ...

Torsion and the second fundamental form for distributions
The second fundamental form of Riemannian geometry is generalised to the case of a manifold with a linear connection and an integrable distribution. This bilinear form is generally not symmetric and its skew part is the torsion.

Pseudohermitian geometry on contact Riemannian manifolds [PDF]
Starting from work by S. Tanno, [39], and E. Barletta et al., [3], we study the geometry of (possibly non integrable) almost CR structures on contact Riemannian manifolds.
