摘要

In the free, step-2, rank-4 sub-Riemannian Carnot group \(\mathbb {F}_4\) F 4 , we give a clean expression for length-extremals, we provide an explicit equation for conjugate points, we relate it with the conjectured cut locus of the origin \(\operatorname {Cut}(\mathbb {F}_4)\) Cut ( F 4 ) . Finally, we give some upper estimates for the cut-time of extremals.
