This function performs the exponential map at (0, 0, 1) on the unit 2-sphere.
Usage
Expmap(vec)
Arguments
vec
element of two-dimensional Euclidean vector space.
Value
three-dimensional vector.
Details
This function performs exponential map at (0, 0, 1) on the unit sphere.
vec is an element of the tangent plane of the unit sphere at (0, 0, 1), and the result is an element of the unit sphere in three-dimensional Euclidean space.
