| May 13, 2021 at 14:41 | comment | added | Nate River | Sorry, how do you get the conjugate point for $\gamma$ from the $v_j$ and $w_j$? I assume you take some convergent subsequence of the intersection points, converging to, say $p_0$, then define a Jacobi field that vanishes at $p_0$ using the geodesics associated to the $v_j$ and $w_j$? However I'm not sure how to contruct this explicitly. | |
