Any sub-Riemannian Metric has Points of Smoothness

Andrei Agrachev

Published 2008-08-29, updated 2008-09-25Version 2

We prove the result stated in the title; it is equivalent to the existence of a regular point of the sub-Riemannian exponential mapping. We also prove that the metric is analytic on an open everywhere dense subset in the case of a complete real-analytic sub-Riemannian manifold.
