Description of the Riemannian geometry in the presence of conical defects
A consistent approach to the description of integral coordinate invariant functionals of the metric on manifolds ${\cal M}_Ī±$ with conical defects (or singularities) of the topology $C_Ī±\timesĪ£$ is developed. According to the proposed prescription ${\cal M}_Ī±$ are considered as limits of the converging sequences of smooth spaces. This enables one ā¦
