Geometry of Fisher Information Metric and the Barycenter Map

Geometry of Fisher metric and geodesics on a space of probability measures defined on a compact manifold is discussed and is applied to geometry of a barycenter map associated with Busemann function on an Hadamard manifold \(X\). We obtain an explicit formula of geodesic and then several theorems on...
