Sublinear deviation between geodesics and sample paths
نویسنده
چکیده
We give a proof of the sublinear tracking property for sample paths of random walks on various groups acting on spaces with hyperbolic-like properties. As an application, we prove sublinear tracking in Teichmüller distance for random walks on mapping class groups, and on Cayley graphs of a large class of finitely generated groups.

Deviation equations in spaces with affine connection
Connections between Lie derivatives and the deviation equation has been investigated in spaces Ln with affine connection. The deviation equations of the geodesics as well as deviation equations of non-geodesics trajectories have been obtained on this base. This is done via imposing certain conditions on the Lie derivatives with respect to the tangential vector of the basic trajectory. B. Z. Ili...
متن کاملHow can we determine if a spacetime is flat?
*Correspondence: Valter Moretti, Dipartimento di Matematica, Università di Trento and Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare Gruppo Collegato di Trento, via Sommarive 14 I-38050 Povo, Italy e-mail: [email protected] A spacetime is locally flat if and only if no geodesical deviation exists for congruences of all kinds of geodesics. However, while for causal geodesics the deviation can be m...
متن کاملGeodesics in Asymmetric Metric Spaces
In a recent paper [16] we studied asymmetric metric spaces; in this context we studied the length of paths, introduced the class of runcontinuous paths; we noted that there are different definitions of “length space” (also known as “path-metric space” or “intrinsic space”). In this paper we continue the analysis of asymmetric metric spaces. We propose possible definitions of completeness and (l...
متن کاملYule Process Sample Path Asymptotics
This paper presents two results on sample paths for the Yule process: one fluid limit theorem and one sample path large deviation result. The main interest is to understand the way large deviation occurs in the case of non-homogeneous processes. There are indeed two new phenomena. First there is no “typical” speed of large deviation. Second, the large deviation event is concentrated on a finite...
متن کاملAn Efficient Representation for Computing Geodesics Between n-Dimensional Elastic Shapes
We propose an efficient representation for studying shapes of closed curves in R. This paper combines the strengths of two important ideas elastic shape metric and path-straightening methods and results in a very fast algorithm for finding geodesics in shape spaces. The elastic metric allows for optimal matching of features between the two curves while path-straightening ensures that the algori...
