Rotational Time Dilation and Angle Contraction
Rotational time dilation and angular contraction are discussed in comparison with the time deletion and length contraction of special relativity. The related issues of clock paradox and simultaneity are explored in rotational scenario. The non Euclidian nature of a relativistic rotation is analyzed in both θ t and θ r subspace. It has been shown that the constancy of the speed of light is intri...
متن کاملSublinear deviation between geodesics and sample paths
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.
متن کاملGeodesics Between 3D Closed Curves Using Path-Straightening
In order to analyze shapes of continuous curves in R, we parameterize them by arc-length and represent them as curves on a unit two-sphere. We identify the subset denoting the closed curves, and study its differential geometry. To compute geodesics between any two such curves, we connect them with an arbitrary path, and then iteratively straighten this path using the gradient of an energy assoc...
متن کاملRelationship Between Gradient of Distance Functions and Tangents to Geodesics
Proposition 1. Let C = (U,φ) be a coordinate chart on a open subset U of a Ddimensional manifold, Ω with coordinate variables u1,u2, · · · ,uD. Suppose U is Riemannian everywhere, equipped with a metric η (which is assume to be nonsingular everywhere i.e. η•• is positive definite), and the geodesic connecting any two points in U lies entirely in U. Let d :RD×RD→R be the distance function in U ⊆...
متن کاملAngle between principal axis triples
S U M M A R Y The principal axis angle ξ 0, or Kagan angle, is a measure of the difference between the orientations of two seismic moment tensors. It is the smallest angle needed to rotate the principal axes of one moment tensor to the corresponding principal axes of the other. This paper is a conceptual review of the main features of ξ 0. We give a concise formula for calculating ξ 0, but our ...
