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

Intrinsic fractional Taylor formula
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.
