Corrections to: ``Sub-Riemannian geometry'' [PDF]
Journal of Differential Geometry, 1989 An error in the proof of Corollary 6.2 of [1] has been pointed out by Gerard Ben-Arous. The computation of M(x,λ) in the case λo = 0 on p. 243 is incorrect, because M(x,λ) = 0 when λ0 = 0 and λjg (x) = 0 for all k. (There is also a factor of \ missing in the formula as stated for λ0 φ 0, but this is not significant.) Thus when applying the Pontryagin ...

On geometry of sub-Riemannian η-Einstein manifolds
Дифференциальная геометрия многообразий фигур, 2019 On a sub-Riemannian manifold of contact type a connection with torsion is considered, called in the work a Ψ-connection. A Ψ-connection is a particular case of an N-connection.

Nonholonomic Systems and Sub-Riemannian Geometry [PDF]
Communications in Information and Systems, 2010 This paper presents several classical mechanical systems with nonholonomic con- straints from the point of view of sub-Riemannian geometry. For those systems that satisfy the bracket generating condition the system can move continuously between any two given states.

The regularity problem for geodesics of the control distance
Bruno Pini Mathematical Analysis Seminar, 2018 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
Учёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Физико-математические науки, 2020 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 ...

Nilpotent Approximations of Sub-Riemannian Distances for Fast Perceptual Grouping of Blood Vessels in 2D and 3D [PDF]
, 2017 We propose an efficient approach for the grouping of local orientations (points on vessels) via nilpotent approximations of sub-Riemannian distances in the 2D and 3D roto-translation groups $SE(2)$ and $SE(3)$.

On the Subelliptic Eikonal Equation
Bruno Pini Mathematical Analysis Seminar, 2017 On a bounded smooth domain, we consider the viscosity solution of the homogeneous Dirichlet problem for the eikonal equation associated with a system of Hörmander’s vector fields.

Sub-Lorentzian Geometry of Curves and Surfaces in a Lorentzian Lie Group
Advances in Mathematical Physics, 2022 We consider the sub-Lorentzian geometry of curves and surfaces in the Lie group E1,1. Firstly, as an application of Riemannian approximants scheme, we give the definition of Lorentzian approximants scheme for E1,1 which is a sequence of Lorentzian ...

How smooth is quantum complexity?
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 The “quantum complexity” of a unitary operator measures the difficulty of its construction from a set of elementary quantum gates. While the notion of quantum complexity was first introduced as a quantum generalization of the classical computational ...
