The exponential map of a weak Riemannian Hilbert manifold
Abstract
We prove the Focal Index Lemma and the Rauch--Berger Comparison Theorems on a weak Riemannian Hilbert manifold with a smooth Levi-Civita connection and we apply these results to the free loop space $\Omega (M^n)$ with the $L^2$ (weak) Riemannian structure.
