Geodesics

Group: 5 #group-5

Relations

  • Differential Geometry: Geodesics are curves that locally minimize distance on a manifold, and their study is fundamental in differential geometry.
  • Gravity: Geodesics are the paths that objects follow in curved spacetime due to gravity.
  • Riemannian Geometry: Geodesics are the generalization of straight lines to curved spaces in Riemannian Geometry.
