A new rotational integral formula for intrinsic volumes in space forms
2010
A new rotational version of Crofton's formula is derived for the intrinsic volumes of a domain Y in a space form. More precisely, a functional is defined on the intersection between Y and a totally geodesic submanifold (plane) through a fixed point, such that the rotational average of this functional is equal to the intrinsic volumes of Y. Particular cases of interest in stereology are considered for the Euclidean case. © 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
Minimum Time Control of the Restricted Three-Body Problem
2012
The minimum time control of the circular restricted three-body problem is considered. Controllability is proved on an adequate submanifold. Singularities of the extremal flow are studied by means of a stratification of the switching surface. Properties of homotopy maps in optimal control are framed in a simple case. The analysis is used to perform continuations on the two parameters of the problem: The ratio of the masses, and the magnitude of the control.
Pauls rectifiable and purely Pauls unrectifiable smooth hypersurfaces
2020
This paper is related to the problem of finding a good notion of rectifiability in sub-Riemannian geometry. In particular, we study which kind of results can be expected for smooth hypersurfaces in Carnot groups. Our main contribution will be a consequence of the following result: there exists a -hypersurface without characteristic points that has uncountably many pairwise non-isomorphic tangent groups on every positive-measure subset. The example is found in a Carnot group of topological dimension 8, it has Hausdorff dimension 12 and so we use on it the Hausdorff measure . As a consequence, we show that any Lipschitz map defined on a subset of a Carnot group of Hausdorff dimension 12, with…
