چکیده
We prove a Steiner formula for regular surfaces with no characteristic points in 3D contact sub-Riemannian manifolds endowed an arbitrary smooth volume. The we obtain, which is equivalent to half-tube formula, of local nature. It can thus be applied any surface region not containing points. provide geometrical interpretation the coefficients appearing expansion, and compute them on some relevant examples three-dimensional model spaces. These results generalize those obtained 10.1016/j.na.2015.05.006 arXiv:1703.01592v3 Heisenberg group.

Sub-Riemannian curvature in contact geometry
We compare different notions of curvature on contact sub-Riemannian manifolds. In particular we introduce canonical curvatures as the coefficients of the sub-Riemannian Jacobi equation. The main result is that all these coefficients are encoded in the asymptotic expansion of the horizontal derivatives of the sub-Riemannian distance. We explicitly compute their expressions in terms of the standa...
متن کاملSub - Riemannian geometry :
Take an n-dimensional manifold M . Endow it with a distribution, by which I mean a smooth linear subbundle D ⊂ TM of its tangent bundle TM . So, for x ∈ M , we have a k-plane Dx ⊂ TxM , and by letting x vary we obtain a smoothly varying family of k-planes on M . Put a smoothly varying family g of inner products on each k-plane. The data (M,D, g) is, by definition, a sub-Riemannian geometry. Tak...
متن کاملTopics in sub-Riemannian geometry
Sub-Riemannian geometry is the geometry of spaces with nonholonomic constraints. This paper presents an informal survey of some topics in this area, starting with the construction of geodesic curves and ending with a recent definition of curvature. Bibliography: 28 titles.
متن کاملConnections in sub-Riemannian geometry
We introduce the notion of a connection over a bundle map and apply it to a sub-Riemannian geometry. It is shown that the concepts of normal and abnormal extremals of a sub-Riemannian structure can be characterized as parallel transported sections with respect to these generalized connections. Using this formalism we are able to give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a sp...
