The embedding dimension of Laplacian eigenfunction maps

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Any closed, connected Riemannian manifold M can be smoothly embedded by its Laplacian eigenfunction maps into mathbbRm for some m. We call the smallest such m the maximal embedding dimension of M. We show that the maximal embedding dimension of M is bounded from above by a constant depending only on the dimension of M, a lower bound for injectivity radius, a lower bound for Ricci curvature, and a volume bound. We interpret this result for the case of surfaces isometrically immersed in mathbbR3, showing that the maximal embedding dimension only depends on bounds for the Gaussian curvature, mean curvature, and surface area. Furthermore, we consider the relevance of these results for shape registration.
