Fundamentals of Riemannian geometry and its evolution : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Mathematics at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
In this thesis we study the theory of Riemannian manifolds: these are smooth manifolds equipped with Riemannian metrics, which allow one to measure geometric quantities such as distances and angles.

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 ...

Initial State Privacy of Nonlinear Systems on Riemannian Manifolds
ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate initial state privacy protection for discrete‐time nonlinear closed systems. By capturing Riemannian geometric structures inherent in such privacy challenges, we refine the concept of differential privacy through the introduction of an initial state adjacency set based on Riemannian distances.

The infinity(x)-Laplace equation in Riemannian vector fields
We employ Riemannian jets which are adapted to the Riemannian geometry to obtain the existence-uniqueness of viscosity solutions to the infinity(x)-Laplace equation in Riemannian vector fields.

The Geometry of Color in the Light of a Non‐Riemannian Space
Abstract We formalize Schrödinger's definitions of hue, saturation, and lightness, building on the foundational idea from Helmholtz that these perceptual attributes can be derived solely from the perceptual metric. We identify three shortcomings in Schrödinger's approach and propose solutions to them.

On noncommutative and pseudo-Riemannian geometry [PDF]
We introduce the notion of a semi-Riemannian spectral triple which generalizes the notion of spectral triple and allows for a treatment of semi-Riemannian manifolds within a noncommutative setting. It turns out that the relevant spaces in noncommutative semi-Riemannian geometry are not Hilbert spaces any more but Krein spaces, and Dirac operators are ...

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 ...
