A Note on Closed Geodesics for a Class of non–compact Riemannian Manifolds

نویسنده

چکیده

This paper is concerned with the existence of closed geodesics on a non–compact manifold M . There are very few papers on such a problem, see [3, 13, 14]. In particular, Tanaka deals with the manifod M = R×S , endowed with a metric g(s, ξ) = g0(ξ) + h(s, ξ), where g0 is the standard product metric on R × S N . Under the assumption that h(s, ξ) → 0 as |s| → ∞, he proves the existence of a closed geodesic, found as a critical point of the energy functional

Closed Geodesics in Compact Riemannian Good Orbifolds and Horizontal Periodic Geodesics of Riemannian Foliations

In this paper we prove the existence of closed geodesics in certain types of compact Riemannian good orbifolds. This gives us an elementary alternative proof of a result due to Guruprasad and Haefliger. In addition, we prove some results about horizontal periodic geodesics of Riemannian foliations and stress the relation between them and closed geodesics in Riemannian orbifolds. In particular w...

A Geometry Preserving Kernel over Riemannian Manifolds

Abstract- Kernel trick and projection to tangent spaces are two choices for linearizing the data points lying on Riemannian manifolds. These approaches are used to provide the prerequisites for applying standard machine learning methods on Riemannian manifolds. Classical kernels implicitly project data to high dimensional feature space without considering the intrinsic geometry of data points. ...

On The Closed Geodesics Problem

In this paper we review some important results on the closed geodesics problem for compact Riemannian manifolds, as the Gromoll-Mayer Theorem, and discuss some extension of those results to the case of Finsler and semi Rimannian manifolds.

Volume growth and closed geodesics on Riemannian manifolds of hyperbolic type

We study the volume growth function of geodesic spheres in the universal Riemann-ian covering of a compact manifold of hyperbolic type. Furthermore, we investigate the growth rate of closed geodesics in compact manifolds of hyperbolic type.

A Poisson Relation for Conic Manifolds

Let X be a compact Riemannian manifold with conic singularities, i.e. a Riemannian manifold whose metric has a conic degeneracy at the boundary. Let ∆ be the Friedrichs extension of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on X. There are two natural ways to define geodesics passing through the boundary: as “diffractive” geodesics which may emanate from ∂X in any direction, or as “geometric” geodesics whi...
