Gauss's lemma (Riemannian geometry)

Theorem in manifold theory This article is about Gauss's lemma in Riemannian geometry. For other uses, see Gauss's lemma. In Riemannian geometry, Gauss's lemma asserts that any sufficiently small sphere centered at a point in a Riemannian manifold is perpendicular to every geodesic through the point. More formally, let M be a Riemannian manifold, equipped with its Levi-Civita connection, and p a point of M. The exponential map is a mapping from the tangent space at p to M: e x p : T p M !...
