Parallal Spinors on Pseudo-Riemannian SpinC Manifolds [PDF]
We describe, by their holonomy groups, all simply connected irreducible non-locally symmetric pseudo-Riemannian SpinC manifolds which admit parallel spinors. So we generalise the Riemannian case and the pseudo-Riemannian one.

Sub-Riemannian Curvature in Contact Geometry [PDF]
We compare different notions of curvature on contact sub-Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we introduce canonical curvatures as the coefficients of the sub-Riemannian Jacobi equation.

Polar Coordinates for the 3/2 Stochastic Volatility Model
ABSTRACT The 3/2 stochastic volatility model is a continuous positive process s with a correlated infinitesimal variance process ν$\nu $. The exact definition is provided in the Introduction immediately below. By inspecting the geometry associated with this model, we discover an explicit smooth map ψ$ \psi $ from (R+)2$({\mathbb{R}}^+)^2 $ to the ...

On Jacobi fields and canonical connection in sub-Riemannian geometry [PDF]
In sub-Riemannian geometry the coefficients of the Jacobi equation define curvature-like invariants. We show that these coefficients can be interpreted as the curvature of a canonical Ehresmann connection associated to the metric, first introduced in ...

Social Rationality and Human Reasoning: Logical Expressivism and the Flat Mind
Abstract This paper attempts to reconcile the claims that the mind is both flat (Chater, 2018) and highly rational (Oaksford & Chater, 2020). According to the flat mind hypothesis, the mind is a mass of inconsistent and contradictory fragments of experience.

The χ-Hessian Quotient for Riemannian Metrics
Pseudo-Riemannian geometry and Hilbert–Schmidt norms are two important fields of research in applied mathematics. One of the main goals of this paper will be to find a link between these two research fields. In this respect, in the present paper, we will

The rolling problem: overview and challenges
In the present paper we give a historical account -ranging from classical to modern results- of the problem of rolling two Riemannian manifolds one on the other, with the restrictions that they cannot instantaneously slip or spin one with respect to the ...

Asymptotic behavior of Moncrief Lines in constant curvature space‐times
Abstract We study the asymptotic behavior of Moncrief lines on 2+1$2+1$ maximal globally hyperbolic spatially compact space‐time M$M$ of nonnegative constant curvature. We show that when the unique geodesic lamination associated with M$M$ is either maximal uniquely ergodic or simplicial, the Moncrief line converges, as time goes to zero, to a unique ...

Dimensionality Reduction for BCI Classification using Riemannian Geometry
In the past few years, there has been an increasing interest among the Brain-Computer Interface research community in classification algorithms that respect the intrinsic geometry of covariance matrices.

Equal area partitions of the sphere with diameter bounds, via optimal transport
Abstract We prove existence of equal area partitions of the unit sphere via optimal transport methods, accompanied by diameter bounds written in terms of Monge–Kantorovich distances. This can be used to obtain bounds on the expectation of the maximum diameter of partition sets, when points are uniformly sampled from the sphere.
