We present a novel cortically-inspired image completion algorithm. It uses five-dimensional sub-Riemannian cortical geometry, modeling the orientation, spatial frequency and phase-selective behavior of the cells in the visual cortex.

The group of rigid motions of the Minkowski plane with a general left-invariant metric is denoted by E1,1,gλ1,λ2, where λ1≥λ2>0. It provides a natural 2-parametric deformation family of the Riemannian homogeneous manifold Sol3=E1,1,g1,1 which is the ...

Integral Formulas for a Foliation with a Unit Normal Vector Field
In this article, we prove integral formulas for a Riemannian manifold equipped with a foliation F and a unit vector field N orthogonal to F, and generalize known integral formulas (due to Brito-Langevin-Rosenberg and Andrzejewski-Walczak) for foliations ...

On the geometry of sub-Riemannian manifolds equipped with a canonical quarter-symmetric connection
In this article, a sub-Riemannian manifold of contact type is understood as a Riemannian manifold equipped with a regular distribution of codimension-one and by a unit structure vector field orthogonal to this distribution. This vector field is called a

Anisotropically Weighted and Nonholonomically Constrained Evolutions on Manifolds
We present evolution equations for a family of paths that results from anisotropically weighting curve energies in non-linear statistics of manifold valued data. This situation arises when performing inference on data that have non-trivial covariance and

Curvature-dimension inequalities on sub-Riemannian manifolds obtained from Riemannian foliations, Part I [PDF]
We give a generalized curvature-dimension inequality connecting the geometry of sub-Riemannian manifolds with the properties of its sub-Laplacian. This inequality is valid on a large class of sub-Riemannian manifolds obtained from Riemannian foliations ...

On 4-dimensional Einsteinian manifolds with parallel null distribution [PDF]
In this paper, we investigate the Einsteinian manifolds with parallel null distribution. For this purpose, we first obtain the equations, which are known as Einstein's equations, that lead to finding the mentioned manifolds and then, we reduce Einstein's

The regularity problem for geodesics of the control distance
In this survey, we present some recent results on the problem about the regularity of length-minimizing curves in sub-Riemannian geometry. We also sketch the possible application of some ideas coming from Geometric Measure Theory.

The left-invariant contact metric structure on the Sol manifold
Among the known eight-dimensional Thurston geometries, there is a geometry of the Sol manifold – a Lie group consisting of real special matrices. For a left-invariant Riemannian metric on the Sol manifold, the left shift group is a maximal simple ...
