Carnot–Carathéodory metric : ウィキペディア英語版
Sub-Riemannian manifold
In mathematics, a sub-Riemannian manifold is a certain type of generalization of a Riemannian manifold. Roughly speaking, to measure distances in a sub-Riemannian manifold, you are allowed to go only along curves tangent to so-called ''horizontal subspaces''.

Sub-Riemannian manifolds (and so, ''a fortiori'', Riemannian manifolds) carry a natural intrinsic metric called the metric of Carnot–Carathéodory. The Hausdorff dimension of such metric spaces is always an integer and larger than its topological dimension (unless it is actually a Riemannian manifold).
Sub-Riemannian manifolds often occur in the study of constrained systems in classical mechanics, such as the motion of vehicles on a surface, the motion of robot arms, and the orbital dynamics of satellites. Geometric quantities such as the Berry phase may be understood in the language of sub-Riemannian geometry. The Heisenberg group, important to quantum mechanics, carries a natural sub-Riemannian structure.
==Definitions==

By a ''distribution'' on M we mean a subbundle of the tangent bundle of M.

Given a distribution H(M)\subset T(M) a vector field in H(M)\subset T(M) is called horizontal. A curve \gamma on M is called horizontal if \dot\gamma(t)\in H_(M) for any
t.
A distribution on H(M) is called completely non-integrable if for any x\in M we have that any tangent vector can be presented as a linear combination of vectors of the following types A(x),\ ()(x),\ ]](x),\dotsc\in T_x(M) where all vector fields A,B,C,D, \dots are horizontal.
A sub-Riemannian manifold is a triple (M, H, g), where M is a differentiable manifold, H is a ''completely non-integrable'' "horizontal" distribution and g is a smooth section of positive-definite quadratic forms on H.
Any sub-Riemannian manifold carries the natural intrinsic metric, called the metric of Carnot–Carathéodory, defined as
:d(x, y) = \inf\int_0^1 \sqrt \, dt,
where infimum is taken along all ''horizontal curves'' \gamma: (1 ) \to M such that \gamma(0)=x, \gamma(1)=y.
