In differential geometry, the cut locus of a point p on a manifold is the closure of the set of all other points on the manifold that are connected to p by two or more distinct shortest geodesics. More generally, the cut locus of a closed set X on the manifold is the closure of the set of all other points on the manifold connected to X by two or more distinct shortest geodesics.
