In this paper, we study the long existence problem of non Berwaldian Landsberg spaces using the conformal transformation point of view. Under conformal transformation, the Berwald and Landesberg tensors are calculated in terms of the T-tensor. By giving examples, we show that under conformal transformation, there are L…

In this paper we classify all non-Berwaldian Randers metrics of Douglas type arising from invariant hyper-Hermitian metrics on simply connected four-dimensional real Lie groups. Also, the formulas of the flag curvature are given and it is shown that, in some directions, the flag curvature of the Randers metrics and the…

It is still a long-standing open problem in Finsler geometry, is there any regular Landsberg metric which is not Berwaldian. However, there are non-regular Landsberg metrics which are not Berwladian. The known examples are established by G. S. Asanov and Z. Shen. In this paper, we use the Maple program to study some ex…

We describe the $(α,β)$-metrics whose the $T$-tensor vanishes ($T$-condition) and the $(α,β)$-metrics that satisfy the $σT$-condition $σ_hT^h_{ijk}=0$, where $σ_h=\frac{\partial σ}{\partial x^h}$ and $σ$ is a smooth function on $M$. These classes have already been obtained by Z. Shen and G. S. Asanov in a completely di…

In this paper, we study almost regular Landsberg general $(α,β)$-metrics in Finsler geometry. The corresponding equivalent equations are given. By solving the equations, we give the classification of Landsberg general $(α,β)$-metrics under the conditon that $β$ is closed and conformal to $α$. Under this condition, we p…

In this short note, we verify R. Bryant's claim: there does exist the singular Landsberg Finsler surface with a vanishing flag curvature which is not Berwaldian.

Compact Finslerian manifolds don't admit non-trivial circle-preserving transformations.

We show that, for Finsler spaces with cubic metric, Landsberg spaces are Berwaldian. Also, for decomposable metrics, we determine specific conditions for a space with cubic metric to be of Berwald type, thus refining the result in [6].

We prove that a reversible Berwaldian Finsler structure $\left(M,F\right)$ with base-independent non-negative radial flag curvature and large volume growth does not have any closed geodesics.

The paper consider the symmetric of Finsler spaces. We give some conditions about globally symmetric Finsler spaces. Then we prove that these spaces can be written as a coset space of Lie group with an invariant Finsler metric. Finally, we prove that such a space must be Berwaldian

The paper explores parallel 1-forms on special Finsler manifolds and their properties.

In this paper, we study Randers metrics and find a condition on Ricci tensor of these metrics to be Berwaldian. This generalize Shen's Theorem which says: every R-°at complete Randers metric is locally Minkowskian. Then we find a necessary and sufficient condition on Ricci tensor under which a Randers metric of scalar …

Study on special anisotropic conformal changes of conic pseudo-Finsler surfaces.

Some general Finsler connections are defined. Emphasis is being made on the Cartan tensor and its derivatives. Vanishing of the hv-curvature tensors of these connections characterizes Landsbergian, Berwaldian as well as Riemannian structures. This view point makes it possible to give a smart representation of connectio…

The nullity distributions of the two curvature tensors \, $\overast{R}$ and $\overast{P}$ of the Chern connection of a Finsler manifold are investigated. The completeness of the nullity foliation associated with the nullity distribution $\N_{R^\ast}$ is proved. Two counterexamples are given: the first shows that $\N_{R…

In this paper, we consider doubly warped product (DWP) Finsler manifolds with some non-Riemannian curvature properties. First, we study Berwald and isotropic mean Berwald DWP-Finsler manifolds. Then we prove that every proper Douglas DWP-Finsler manifold is Riemannian. We show that a proper DWP-manifold is Landsbergian…

The paper classifies Finsler surfaces satisfying the T-condition or σT-condition.

In this paper, we introduce horizontal and vertical warped product Finsler manifold. We prove that every C-reducible or proper Berwaldian doubly warped product Finsler manifold is Riemannian. Then, we find the relation between Riemmanian curvatures of doubly warped product Finsler manifold and its components, and consi…

Singular Finsler metrics, such as Kropina metrics and $m$-Kropina metrics, have a lot of applications in the real world. In this paper, we study a class of singular Finsler metrics defined by a Riemann metric $α$ and 1-form $β$ and characterize those which are respectively Douglasian and locally projectively flat in di…

The paper classifies Landsberg spherically symmetric Finsler metrics in various dimensions.

We give the explicit formulas of the flag curvatures of left invariant Matsumoto and Kropina metrics of Berwald type. We can see these formulas are different from previous results given recently. Using these formulas, we prove that at any point of an arbitrary connected non-commutative nilpotent Lie group, the flag cur…

Geodesic sprays on Finsler manifolds studied with covariant coefficients.

For every Finsler metric $F$ we associate a Riemannian metric $g_F$ (called the Binet-Legendre metric). The transformation $F \mapsto g_F$ is $C^0$-stable and has good smoothness properties, in contrast to previous constructions. The Riemannian metric $g_F$ also behaves nicely under conformal or bilipshitz deformation …
