Geodesics of Random Riemannian Metrics: Supplementary Material

This is supplementary material for the main Geodesics article by the authors. In Appendix A, we present some general results on the construction of Gaussian random fields. In Appendix B, we restate our Shape Theorem, specialized to the setting of this article. In Appendix C, we state some straightforward consequences on the geometry of geodesics for a random metric. In Appendix D, we provide a rapid introduction to Riemannian geometry for the unfamiliar reader. In Appendix E, we present some analytic estimates which we use in the article. In Appendix F, we present the construction of the conditional mean operator for Gaussian measures. In Appendix G, we describe Fermi normal coordinates, which we use in our construction of the bump metric.
