Sub-Riemannian Geometry is proved to play an important role in many applications, e.g., Mathematical Physics and Control Theory. The simplest example of sub-Riemannian structure is provided by the 3-D Heisenberg group. Sub-Riemannian Geometry enjoys major differences from the Riemannian being a generalisation of the la…

Study on Hausdorff dimension and curvature bounds in sub-Lorentzian Heisenberg group.

problem Hausdorff dimension and curvature bounds in sub-Lorentzian Heisenberg group.
method Elementary variational approach, Lorentzian isoperimetric problem, uniform estimate of causal diamonds.
result Heisenberg group has Lorentzian Hausdorff dimension 4 and satisfies neither timelike curvature-dimension nor measure contraction properties.

It is commonly known that in Riemannian and sub-Riemannian Geometry, the metric tensor on a manifold defines a distance function. In Lorentzian Geometry, instead of a distance function it provides causal relations and the Lorentzian time-separation function. Both lead to the definition of the Alexandrov topology, which…

This paper classifies holonomy groups of K-contact sub-pseudo-Riemannian manifolds.

problem The problem of subspace degeneracy in indefinite signature metrics.

result Horizontal holonomy group either coincides with the adapted holonomy group or acts as its normal subgroup of codimension one.

Let E be the Engel group and D be a rank 2 bracket generating left invariant distribution with a Lorentzian metric, which is a nondegenerate metric of index 1. In this paper, we first prove that timelike normal extremals are locally maximizing. Second, we obtain a parametrization of timelike, spacelike, lightlike norma…

We consider the four-dimensional nonholonomic distribution defined by the 4-potential of the electromagnetic field on the manifold. This distribution has a metric tensor with the Lorentzian signature (+,,,)(+,-,-,-), therefore, the causal structure appears as in the general relativity theory. By means of the Pontryagin's m…
