We prove that knowing the lengths of geodesics joining points of the boundary of a two-dimensional, compact, simple Riemannian manifold with boundary, we can determine uniquely the Riemannian metric up to the natural obstruction.

We give a new notion of angle in general metric spaces; more precisely, given a triple a points p, x, q in a metric space (X, d), we introduce the notion of angle cone ∠pxq as being an interval ∠pxq := [∠pxq,∠ + pxq], where the quantities ∠ ± pxq are defined in terms of the distance functions from p and q via a duality construction of differentials and gradients holding for locally Lipschitz fu...

Lie groups appear in many fields fromMedical Imaging to Robotics. In Medical Imaging and particularly in Computational Anatomy, an organ’s shape is often modeled as the deformation of a reference shape, in other words: as an element of a Lie group. In this framework, if one wants to model the variability of the human anatomy, e.g. in order to help diagnosis of diseases, one needs to perform sta...

Let $(M^{m}, g)$ be a Riemannian manifold and $TM$ its tangent bundle equipped with deformed Sasaki metric. In this paper, firstly we investigate all forms of curvature tensors (Riemannian tensor, Ricci curvature, sectional scalar curvature). Secondly, study the geometry unit metric, where presented formulas Levi-Civita connection also

We study compact complex 3-manifolds admitting holomorphic Riemannian metrics. We prove a uniformization result: up to a finite unramified cover, such a manifold admits a holomorphic Riemannian metric of constant sectionnal curvature.

We prove Liouville theorems for Dirac-harmonic maps from the Euclidean space Rn, the hyperbolic space Hn and a Riemannian manifold Sn (n ≥ 3) with the Schwarzschild metric to any Riemannian manifold N .

Is is known that the loop space associated to a Riemannian manifold admits a quasi-symplectic structure. This article shows that this structure is not likely to recover the underlying Riemannian metric by proving a result that is a strong indication of the “almost” independence of the quasi-symplectic structure with respect to the metric. Finally conditions to have contact structures on these s...

The dual flatness for Riemannian metrics in information geometry has been extended to Finsler metrics. The aim of this paper is to study the dual flatness of the so-called (α, β)-metrics in Finsler geometry. By doing some special deformations, we will show that the dual flatness of an (α, β)-metric always arises from that of some Riemannian metric in dimensional n ≥ 3.

Let B be a fiber bundle with compact fiber F over a compact Riemannian n-manifold M. There is a natural Riemannian metric on the total space B consistent with the metric on M . With respect to that metric, the volume of a rectifiable section σ : M → B is the mass of the image σ(M) as a rectifiable n-current in B. For any homology class of sections of B, there is a mass-minimizing Cartesian curr...

In this paper, we first detail the geodesic matching of images which consists in minimizing an energy resulting from a Riemannian metric on a manifold of images, which itself comes from the projection of a Riemannian metric on a deformation group onto the image manifold. We will then present an energy minimization technique based on a wavelet analysis of the deformation and finally some applica...
