- Abstract (EN)
- The geodesic complexity of a Riemannian manifold is a numerical isometry invariant that is determined by the structure of its cut loci. In this article we study decompositions of cut loci over whose components the tangent cut loci fiber in a convenient way. We establish a new upper bound for geodesic complexity in terms of such decompositions. As an application, we obtain estimates for the geodesic complexity of certain classes of homogeneous manifolds. In particular, we compute the geodesic complexity of complex and quaternionic projective spaces with their standard symmetric metrics.
