Geodesics in stationary spacetimes . Application to Kerr spacetime
The Levi-Civita connection and geodesic equations for a stationary spacetime are studied in depth. General formulae which generalize those for warped products are obtained. These results are applicated to some regions of Kerr spacetime previously studied by using variational methods. We show that they are neither space-convex nor geodesically connected. Moreover, the whole stationary part of Ke...
متن کاملMinimal Geodesics on Groups
The three-dimensional motion of an incompressible inviscid uid is classically described by the Euler equations, but can also be seen, following Arnold 1], as a geodesic on a group of volume-preserving maps. Local existence and uniqueness of minimal geodesics have been established by Ebin and Marsden 16]. In the large, for a large class of data, the existence of minimal geodesics may fail, as sh...
متن کاملOn geodesics of phyllotaxis
1: Seeds of sunflowers are often modelled by the map n 7−→ φθ(n) = √ ne2iπnθ leading to a roughly uniform repartition with two consecutive seeds separated by the divergence angle 2πθ for θ the golden ratio. We associate to an arbitrary real divergence angle 2πθ a geodesic path γθ : R>0 −→ PSL2(Z)\H of the modular curve and use it for local descriptions of the image φθ(N) of the phyllotactic map...
متن کاملComputing geodesics on triangular meshes
We present a new algorithm to compute a geodesic path over a triangulated surface. Based on Sethian’s Fast Marching Method and Polthier’s straightest geodesics theory, we are able to generate an iterative process to obtain a good discrete geodesic approximation. It can handle both convex and non-convex surfaces. r 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
متن کاملGeodesics on the Symplectomorphism Group
In [E-M] we proved the existence of geodesics for a right invariant L Riemannian metric on the group of volume preserving diffeomorphisms (volumorphisms) of a compact manifold M. These geodesics are important because they describe all possible motions of an incompressible inviscid fluid which fills M. In the present work we shall assume that M has a symplectic form ω and prove the same result f...
