The Lp$L^p$‐diameter of the space of contractible loops
Abstract We prove that the space of contractible simple loops of a given fixed area in any compact oriented surface has infinite diameter as a homogeneous space of the group of area‐preserving diffeomorphisms endowed with the Lp$L^p$‐metric. As a special case, this resolves the Lp$L^p$‐metric analog of the well‐known question in symplectic topology ...

Lorentzian homogeneous structures with indecomposable holonomy
Abstract For a Lorentzian homogeneous space, we study how algebraic conditions on the isotropy group affect the geometry and curvature of the homogeneous space. More specifically, we prove that a Lorentzian locally homogeneous space is locally isometric to a plane wave if it admits an Ambrose–Singer connection with indecomposable, non‐irreducible ...

Integrable Equations and Their Evolutions Based on Intrinsic Geometry of Riemann Spaces
The intrinsic geometry of surfaces and Riemannian spaces will be investigated. It is shown that many nonlinear partial differential equations with physical applications and soliton solutions can be determined from the components of the relevant metric ...

The sphere and the cut locus at a tangency point in two-dimensional almost-Riemannian geometry
We study the tangential case in 2-dimensional almost-Riemannian geometry. We analyse the connection with the Martinet case in sub-Riemannian geometry. We compute estimations of the exponential map which allow us to describe the conjugate locus and the ...

Riemannian Holonomy and Algebraic Geometry
This survey paper is devoted to Riemannian manifolds with special holonomy. To any Riemannian manifold of dimension n is associated a closed subgroup of SO(n), the holonomy group; this is one of the most basic invariants of the metric.
