Curvature Conditions on Riemannian Manifolds with Brownian Harmonicity Properties
The time and place that Brownian motion on a Riemannian manifold first exits a normal ball of radius e is considered and a general procedure is given for computing asymptotic expansions, as e decreases to zero, for joint moments of the first exit time and place random variables. It is proven that asymptotic versions of exit time and place distribution properties that hold on harmonic spaces are...
متن کاملHarmonicity and Minimality of Vector Fields on Lorentzian Lie Groups
We consider four-dimensional lie groups equipped with left-invariant Lorentzian Einstein metrics, and determine the harmonicity properties of vector fields on these spaces. In some cases, all these vector fields are critical points for the energy functional restricted to vector fields. We also classify vector fields defining harmonic maps, and calculate explicitly the energy of t...
متن کاملIntrinsic Coupling on Riemannian Manifolds and Polyhedra
Starting from a central limit theorem for geometric random walks we give an elementary construction of couplings between Brownian motions on Riemannian manifolds. This approach shows that cut locus phenomena are indeed inessential for Kendall’s and Cranston’s stochastic proof of gradient estimates for harmonic functions on Riemannian manifolds with lower curvature bounds. Moreover, since the me...
متن کاملSemi-intrinsic Mean Shift on Riemannian Manifolds
The original mean shift algorithm [1] on Euclidean spaces (MS) was extended in [2] to operate on general Riemannian manifolds. This extension is extrinsic (Ext-MS) since the mode seeking is performed on the tangent spaces [3], where the underlying curvature is not fully considered (tangent spaces are only valid in a small neighborhood). In [3] was proposed an intrinsic mean shift designed to op...
متن کاملIntrinsic torsion classes of Riemannian structures
This article introduces the problem of finding intrinsic torsion varieties associated to G -structures on a fixed parallelizable Riemannian manifold. As an illustration, the intrinsic torsion varieties of orthogonal almost product structures are analysed on the Iwasawa manifold.
