Abstract

Sub-Riemannian geometry is the geometry of a distribution ofk-planes on an-dimensional manifold with a smoothly varying inner product on thek-planes. Singular curves are singularities of the space of paths tangent to the distribution and joining two fixed points. This survey is devoted to the singular curves, which can be length minimizing geodesics, independent of the choice of inner product.
