Gauge Invariance of Degenerate Riemannian Metrics
Introduction Having applications to Form recognition in mind, we want to be able to compare shapes of surfaces in R3 in a way that does not depend on parameterizations. To accomplish such so-called gauge invariance, we defined a metric on the space of parameterized surfaces that is degenerate in the direction of reparameterization. 1 What are the surfaces under consideration? The surfaces we wi...
متن کاملON THE LIFTS OF SEMI-RIEMANNIAN METRICS
In this paper, we extend Sasaki metric for tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold and Sasaki-Mok metric for the frame bundle of a Riemannian manifold [I] to the case of a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi- Riemannian manifold. In fact, if E is a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi-Riemannian manifold M, then by using an arbitrary (linear) connection on E, we can make E, as a...
متن کاملNormal forms for pseudo-Riemannian 2-dimensional metrics whose geodesic flows admit integrals quadratic in momenta
We discuss pseudo-Riemannian metrics on 2-dimensional manifolds such that the geodesic flow admits a nontrivial integral quadratic in velocities. We construct (Theorem 1) local normal forms of such metrics. We show that these metrics have certain useful properties similar to those of Riemannian Liouville metrics, namely: • they admit geodesically equivalent metrics (Theorem 2); • one can use th...
متن کاملJa n 20 06 Non - degenerate bilinear forms in characteristic 2 , related contact forms , simple
Non-degenerate bilinear forms over fields of characteristic 2, in particular, nonsymmetric ones, are classified with respect to various equivalences, and the Lie algebras preserving them are described. Although it is known that there are two series of distinct finite simple Chevalley groups preserving the non-degenerate symmetric bilinear forms on the space of even dimension, the description of...
متن کاملSobolev Metrics on the Riemannian Manifold of All Riemannian Metrics
On the manifold M(M) of all Riemannian metrics on a compact manifold M one can consider the natural L-metric as decribed first by [10]. In this paper we consider variants of this metric which in general are of higher order. We derive the geodesic equations, we show that they are well-posed under some conditions and induce a locally diffeomorphic geodesic exponential mapping. We give a condition...
