Exponential map (Riemannian geometry)
&sq=crain_ford&lang=en&file=File:Azimuthal_Equidistant_N90.jpg)
In Riemannian geometry, an exponential map is a map from a subset of a tangent space TpM of a Riemannian manifold (or pseudo-Riemannian manifold) M to M itself. The (pseudo) Riemannian metric determines a canonical affine connection, and the exponential map of the (pseudo) Riemannian manifold is given by the exponential map of this connection.
