Laguerre Arc Length from Distance Functions

Abstract: Abstract. For the Laguerre geometry in the dual plane, invariant arc length is shown to arise naturally through the use of a pair of distance functions. These distances are useful for identifying equivalence classes of curves, within which the extremal curves are proved to be strict maximizers of Laguerre arc length among three-times differentiable curves of constant signature in a prescribed isotopy class. For smoother curves, it is shown that Laguerre curvature determines the distortion of the distance funct… Show more

“…In the parabolic space the nine-point Theorem 4.1 is not preserved in this manner. It is already observed [41], [35], [46], [39], [43], [40], [52], [3], that the degeneracy of parabolic metric in the point space requires certain revision of traditional definitions. The parabolic variation of nine-point theorem may prompt some further considerations as well.…”

“…In most cases it corresponds to orthogonality of quadrics in the point space. More generally, most of FLT-invariant relations between quadrics may be expressed in terms FLT-invariant inner product (5). For the full description of methods on individual cycles, which are implemented in the library cycle, see the respective documentation [41].…”
