Finally, as local polar/normal coordinates, we take advantage of Definition E.3.

In the tangent plane T q M
2 , we introduce local polar/normal coordinates by (E.118), where t is the
parameter of the Maupertuis gauged geodesic and α is the azimuth of the geodesic passing the point

A,B and the geodesic “Maupertuis gauged” in their Hamilton form are analytic. Accordingly,
we can solve (E.113) by the Taylor expansion (E.119).

By means of (E.113) and (E.118), we here are able to take advantage of the Lie recurrence
(“Lie series”) which is summarized in the following Box E.7 in order to formulate the solution
of the initial value problem (“erste geod¨ atische Hauptaufgabe”). By standard series inversion
of the homogeneous polynomial q
