Erlend Grong

Erlend Grong is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Bergen. His research focuses on sub-Riemannian geometry, geometric analysis, stochastic processes on manifolds, and control theory. He has contributed to topics such as curvature-dimension inequalities, comparison theorems on H-type manifolds, and geometric rough paths.

Key research interests include the geometry of sub-Riemannian manifolds, stochastic completeness, and applications to problems like the rolling manifolds problem. His work bridges differential geometry, probability, and algebraic structures, with notable results on harmonic maps, holonomy expansions, and foliation theory.

Grong is involved in the GeoProCo project, exploring geometry and probability with constraints. He frequently collaborates with international researchers and presents at conferences on geometric analysis and stochastic processes.
