On the Heisenberg sub-Lorentzian metric on ℝ³

Marek Grochowski (2004)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

In this paper we study properties of the Heisenberg sub-Lorentzian metric on ℝ³. We compute the conjugate locus of the origin, and prove that the sub-Lorentzian distance in this case is differentiable on some open set. We also prove the existence of regular non-Hamiltonian geodesics, a phenomenon which does not occur in the sub-Riemannian case.

Infinitesimal conjugacies and Weil-Petersson metric

Albert Fathi, L. Flaminio (1993)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

We study deformations of compact Riemannian manifolds of negative curvature. We give an equation for the infinitesimal conjugacy between geodesic flows. This in turn allows us to compute derivatives of intersection of metrics. As a consequence we obtain a proof of a theorem of Wolpert.

Geodesic graphs on special 7-dimensional g.o. manifolds

Zdeněk Dušek, Oldřich Kowalski (2006)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

In ( Dušek, Z., Kowalski, O. and Nikčević, S. Ž., New examples of Riemannian g.o. manifolds in dimension 7, Differential Geom. Appl. 21 (2004), 65–78.), the present authors and S. Nikčević constructed the 2-parameter family of invariant Riemannian metrics on the homogeneous manifolds M = [ SO ( 5 ) × SO ( 2 ) ] / U ( 2 ) and M = [ SO ( 4 , 1 ) × SO ( 2 ) ] / U ( 2 ) . They proved that, for the open dense subset of this family, the corresponding Riemannian manifolds are g.o. manifolds which are not naturally reductive. Now we are going to investigate the remaining...
