Topics in sub-Riemannian geometry
This thesis is concerned with three different problems in sub-Riemannian geometry faced during my PhD. The first one is a problem in differential geometry and is about the local conformal classification of a certain class of sub-Riemannian structures. In the second one we deal with topology, and our main result establish some path-fibration properties ...

Intrinsic Shape LDA With Application to Body Human Shapes Classification
ABSTRACT Advancements in 3D scanning and cloud infrastructure enable the acquisition and analysis of high‐density body surface datasets. In this work, we propose a novel methodology that extends linear discriminant analysis (LDA) to Kendall's shape space for the classification of 3D objects, specifically human body shapes.

Left-invariant paracontact metric structure on a group Sol
Among Thurston's famous list of eight three-dimensional geometries is the geometry of the manifold Sol. The variety Sol is a connected simply connected Lie group of real matrices of a special form.

In this paper we study heat kernels associated with a Carnot group G, endowed with a family of collapsing left-invariant Riemannian metrics σε which converge in the Gromov- Hausdorff sense to a sub-Riemannian structure on G as ε→ 0.

Cloud‐Plots for Spherical Data With Applications to Glaucoma and Gait Cyclograms
ABSTRACT In several biomedical contexts, the need for diagnostic analyses of data that is a set of directions in 2, 3, or higher dimensions arises, as for instance, when considering the relative movement of body parts like the limbs, or looking at anatomical orientations.

BiLipschitz Decomposition of Lipschitz Maps between Carnot Groups
Let f : G → H be a Lipschitz map between two Carnot groups. We show that if B is a ball of G, then there exists a subset Z ⊂ B, whose image in H under f has small Hausdorff content, such that B\Z can be decomposed into a controlled number of pieces, the ...

Fourier Expansion‐Based Approach to the Parameter Space of Classical Systems
ABSTRACT We propose a new approach to compute the classical metric tensor (CMT) and the Hannay curvature using Fourier series expansions in action‐angle variables. This approach circumvents the need for complex time‐domain integrals or the construction of generating functions, replacing them with algebraic combinations of Fourier coefficients. We prove

Guiding and Manipulating Light Fields in Microstructured Liquid Crystals
This review summarizes recent advances in guided‐wave optics enabled by microstructured liquid crystal (LC) devices, covering their fundamental material properties, key degree of freedom for dynamic light field manipulations. The advances of linear guided‐wave optics, nonlinear‐optics with spatial optical solitons, and microlasers in LC‐based devices ...

Cracking in brittle TPMS structures is governed by their geometry, with cracks propagating along geodesic paths determined by the initial crack orientation. Regions with small cross‐sections and abrupt area transitions identify critical damage regions and explain the differences in compressive strength among Primitive, Gyroid, Neovius, and IWP designs.
