Intrinsic random walks in Riemannian and sub-Riemannian geometry via volume sampling [PDF]

open access: green, 2017
We relate some basic constructions of stochastic analysis to differential geometry, via random walk approximations. We consider walks on both Riemannian and sub-Riemannian manifolds in which the steps consist of travel along either geodesics or integral ...

Subdifferentials and minimizing Sard conjecture in sub-Riemannian geometry [PDF]

open access: yesJournal de l'École polytechnique. Mathématiques, 2023
We use techniques from nonsmooth analysis and geometric measure theory to provide new examples of complete sub-Riemannian structures satisfying the Minimizing Sard conjecture. In particular, we show that complete sub-Riemannian structures associated with

The Relative Heat Content for Submanifolds in Sub-Riemannian Geometry [PDF]

open access: yesSéminaire de théorie spectrale et géométrie, 2022
We study the small-time asymptotics of the relative heat content for submanifolds in sub-Riemannian geometry. First, we prove the existence of a smooth tubular neighborhood for submanifolds of any codimension, assuming they do not have characteristic ...

New second-order optimality conditions in sub-Riemannian Geometry [PDF]

open access: yesE S A I M: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations, 2021
We study the geometry of the second-order expansion of the extended end-point map for the sub-Riemannian geodesic problem. Translating the geometric reality into equations we derive new second-order necessary optimality conditions in sub-Riemannian ...

Bicycle paths, elasticae and sub-Riemannian geometry [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinearity, 2020
We relate the sub-Riemannian geometry on the group of rigid motions of the plane to ‘bicycling mathematics’. We show that this geometry’s geodesics correspond to bike paths whose front tracks are either non-inflectional Euler elasticae or straight lines,

Integral Formulas for Almost Product Manifolds and Foliations

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
Integral formulas are powerful tools used to obtain global results in geometry and analysis. The integral formulas for almost multi-product manifolds, foliations and multiply twisted products of Riemannian, metric-affine and sub-Riemannian manifolds, to ...

Sub-Riemannian Curvature in Contact Geometry [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Geometric Analysis, 2016
31 pages, 2 figures; v2: the Bonnet-Myers theorem 1.7 now holds for any contact structure; v3: final version (with expanded introduction) to appear on Journal of Geometric Analysis; v4: fixed ...

Intrinsic fractional Taylor formula

open access: yesBruno Pini Mathematical Analysis Seminar, 2022
We consider a class of non-local ultraparabolic Kolmogorov operators and a suitable fractional Holder spaces that take into account the intrinsic sub-riemannian geometry induced by the operators.
