Natural first order Lagrangians for immersions

Jerzy J. Konderak (1998)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We define natural first order Lagrangians for immersions of Riemannian manifolds and we prove a bijective correspondence between such Lagrangians and the symmetric functions on an open subset of m-dimensional Euclidean space.

Curvature and the equivalence problem in sub-Riemannian geometry

Erlend Grong (2022)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

These notes give an introduction to the equivalence problem of sub-Riemannian manifolds. We first introduce preliminaries in terms of connections, frame bundles and sub-Riemannian geometry. Then we arrive to the main aim of these notes, which is to give the description of the canonical grading and connection existing on sub-Riemann manifolds with constant symbol. These structures are exactly what is needed in order to determine if two manifolds are isometric. We give three concrete examples,...
