Minimal Geodesics on Groups
The three-dimensional motion of an incompressible inviscid uid is classically described by the Euler equations, but can also be seen, following Arnold 1], as a geodesic on a group of volume-preserving maps. Local existence and uniqueness of minimal geodesics have been established by Ebin and Marsden 16]. In the large, for a large class of data, the existence of minimal geodesics may fail, as sh...
متن کاملEdge Integration Using Minimal Geodesics
A new approach of edge integration for shape modeling is presented. Detection of the boundaries of objects in a given gray{level image is performed by a multi{stage procedure that integrates a potential generator and a weighted distance transform. This enables us to nd the global minimum of an active contour model's energy. This approach has an advantage over the classical snakes models since i...
متن کاملMinimal Geodesics and Nilpotent Fundamental Groups
Hedlund 18] constructed Riemannian metrics on n-tori, n 3 for which minimal geodesics are very rare. In this paper we construct similar examples for every nilpotent fundamental group. These examples show that Bangert's existence results of minimal geodesics 4] are optimal for nilpotent fundamental groups.
متن کاملFlow under Curvature: Singularity Formation, Minimal Surfaces, and Geodesics
We study hypersurfaces moving under flow that depends on the mean curvature. The approach is based on a numerical technique that embeds the evolving hypersurface as the zero level set of a family of evolving surfaces. In this setting, the resulting partial differential equation for the motion of the level set function φ may be solved by using numerical techniques borrowed from hyperbolic conser...
متن کاملDifferentiability of Minimal Geodesics in Metrics of Low Regularity
In Riemannian metrics that are only Hölder continuous of order α, 0 α 1, let minimal geodesics be the continuous curves realizing the shortest distance between two points. It is shown that for 0 < α 1, minimal geodesics are differentiable with a derivative which is at least Hölder continuous of order α=2 for 0 < α < 1 and which is Hölder continuous of order 1 for α= 1.
