We present a homogeneous space geometry for the manifold of symmetric positive semidefinite matrices of fixed rank. The total space is a connected part of the general linear group endowed with its natural right-invariant metric and the metric on the homogeneous space is chosen such that the quotient space is the image of a Riemannian submersion from the total space. As a result, we obtain complete...
