Information geometry

Information geometry

Information geometry is an interdisciplinary field that applies the techniques of differential geometry to study probability theory and statistics. It studies statistical manifolds, which are Riemannian manifolds whose points correspond to probability distributions. (Wikipedia).

Sasaki geometry and positive curvature - Song Sun [2012]

Abstract: We classify simply connected compact Sasaki manifolds with positive transverse bisectional curvature. In particular, the moduli space of all such manifolds can be contracted to a point—the standard round sphere. This provides an alternative proof of the Mori-Siu-Yau theorem on Fr
