Let  be an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold, and  be its tangent bundle with the lift metric. Then every infinitesimal fiber-preserving conformal transformation  induces an infinitesimal homothetic transformation on .  Furthermore,  the correspondence   gives a homomorphism of the Lie algebra of infinitesimal fiber-preserving conformal transformations on  onto the Lie algebra of infinitesimal ...

3D surface classification is a fundamental problem in computer vision and computational geometry. Surfaces can be classified by different transformation groups. Traditional classification methods mainly use topological transformation groups and Euclidean transformation groups. This paper introduces a novel method to classify surfaces by conformal transformation groups. Conformal equivalent clas...

According to Klein’s Erlangen program, different geometry branches study invariants of a space under different transformation groups. Topology and Euclidean geometry have been widely applied in computer graphics and vision. Between topological transformation group and Euclidean transformation group, there exists a conformal transformation group, which has not been well studied by computer scien...

geospatial information system (gis) has emerged as a very powerful tool for capturing, storing, analyzing, managing, and presenting data that is linked to location. the location information, which is usually obtained from existing maps or the global positioning systems (gps), refers to different coordinate and map projection systems. therefore, unification of the coordinate and mapping systems ...
