متن کاملA weaker geodesic completeness and Clifton-Pohl torus
We propose a new definition of geodesic completeness, based on analytical continuation in the complex domain: we apply this idea to Clifton-Pohl torus, relating, for each geodesic, completeness to the value of a function of initial conditions, called ’impulse’.
متن کاملGeodesic completeness for meromorphic metrics; the case of coercive ones
1 0.1 Foreword This thesis is concerned with extending the idea of geodesic completeness from Riemannian (or pseudo-Riemannian) context to the framework of complex geometry: we take, however a completely holomorphic point of view; that is to say, a 'metric' will be a (meromorphic) symmetric section of the twice covariant holomorphic tensor bundle. Moreover, the use of smooth objects will be sys...
متن کاملAssessment of the Log-Euclidean Metric Performance in Diffusion Tensor Image Segmentation
Introduction: Appropriate definition of the distance measure between diffusion tensors has a deep impact on Diffusion Tensor Image (DTI) segmentation results. The geodesic metric is the best distance measure since it yields high-quality segmentation results. However, the important problem with the geodesic metric is a high computational cost of the algorithms based on it. The main goal of this ...
متن کاملOn the k-nullity foliations in Finsler geometry
Here, a Finsler manifold $(M,F)$ is considered with corresponding curvature tensor, regarded as $2$-forms on the bundle of non-zero tangent vectors. Certain subspaces of the tangent spaces of $M$ determined by the curvature are introduced and called $k$-nullity foliations of the curvature operator. It is shown that if the dimension of foliation is constant, then the distribution is involutive...
