Abstract
A riemannian metric is introduced in the infinite dimensional manifold Σ n of positive operators with rank n < ∞ on a Hilbert space H. The geometry of this manifold is studied and related to the geometry of the submanifolds Σ p of positive operators with range equal to the range of a projection p (rank of p = n ), and P p of selfadjoint projections in the connected component of p. It is shown that these spaces are complete in the geodesic distance.
