We study completeness properties of reparametrization invariant Sobolev metrics of order $nge 2$ on the space of manifold valued open and closed immersed curves. In particular, for several important cases of metrics, we show that Sobolev immersions are metrically and geodesically complete (thus the geodesic equation is globally well-posed). These results were previously known only for closed curves with values in Euclidean space. For the class constant coefficient Sobolev metrics on open curves, we show that they are metrically incomplete, and that this incompleteness only arises from curves that vanish completely (unlike local failures that occur in lower order metrics).

We consider spaces of smooth immersed plane curves (modulo translations and/or rotations), equipped with reparameterization invariant weak Riemannian metrics involving second derivatives. This includes the full $H^2$-metric without zero order terms. We find isometries (called $R$-transforms) from some of these spaces into function spaces with simpler weak Riemannian metrics, and we use this to give explicit formulas for geodesics, geodesic distances, and sectional curvatures. We also show how to utilise the isometries to compute geodesics numerically.
We prove that the geodesic equations of all Sobolev metrics of fractional order one and higher on spaces of diffeomorphisms and, more generally, immersions are locally well posed. This result builds on the recently established real analytic dependenc e of fractional Laplacians on the underlying Riemannian metric. It extends several previous results and applies to a wide range of variational partial differential equations, including the well-known Euler-Arnold equations on diffeomorphism groups as well as the geodesic equations on spaces of manifold-valued curves and surfaces.
We study reparametrization invariant Sobolev metrics on spaces of regular curves. We discuss their completeness properties and the resulting usability for applications in shape analysis. In particular, we will argue, that the development of efficient numerical methods for higher order Sobolev type metrics is an extremely desirable goal.
This chapter reviews some past and recent developments in shape comparison and analysis of curves based on the computation of intrinsic Riemannian metrics on the space of curves modulo shape-preserving transformations. We summarize the general constr uction and theoretical properties of quotient elastic metrics for Euclidean as well as non-Euclidean curves before considering the special case of the square root velocity metric for which the expression of the resulting distance simplifies through a particular transformation. We then examine different numerical approaches that have been proposed to estimate such distances in practice and in particular to quotient out curve reparametrization in the resulting minimization problems.
We show that the space of metrics of positive scalar curvature on any 3-manifold is either empty or contractible. Second, we show that the diffeomorphism group of every 3-dimensional spherical space form deformation retracts to its isometry group. Th is proves the Generalized Smale Conjecture. Our argument is independent of Hatchers theorem in the $S^3$ case and in particular it gives a new proof of the $S^3$ case.
