Talk:Glossary of Riemannian and metric geometry

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Suggested policy regarding glossary usage

Do not link indirectly to this glossary as in [[Glossary of Riemannian and metric geometry|Jacobi field]]. Rather, link verbatim to where you want to go. In this case to [[Jacobi field]]. Then create a redirect from the Jacobi field page to this glossary. This has two principal advantages:

  1. There may be a large number of broken links to Jacobi field elsewhere in Wikipedia. By creating a redirect page, you fix them all at once.
  2. If someone comes along later wants to write a real article about Jacobi fields they can just replace the redirect and there are no links to fix.

Concerning "totally convex": the definition actually requires any geodesic to lie within K, see e.g. http://math.berkeley.edu/~alanw/240papers00/zambon.pdf \Mike(z) 08:36, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
