In the asymmetric setting, Hilbert's fourth problem asks to construct and study all (non-reversible) projective Finsler metrics: Finsler metrics defined on open, convex subsets of real projective n-space for which geodesics lie on projective lines. While asymmetric norms and Funk metrics provide many examples of esse…
We study the following problem: given an Einstein metric on a manifold, characterize and study all Einstein metrics which are pointwise projective to the given one. By definition, two metrics are said to be pointwise projectively related if they have the same geodesics as point sets. This is closely related to Hilbert'…
A strictly convex real projective orbifold is equipped with a natural Finsler metric called the Hilbert metric. In the case that the projective structure is hyperbolic, the Hilbert metric and the hyperbolic metric coincide. We prove that the marked Hilbert length spectrum determines the projective structure only up to …
We correct a mistake in Shen Yibing, Yu Yaoyong, On Projectively Related Randers Metrics, International Journal of Mathematics 19}(2008), no. 5, 503--520, and prove the natural generalization of the projective Lichnerowicz-Obata conjecture for Randers metrics.
In this paper, we study a class of Finsler metrics composed by a Riemann metric α=aij(x)yiyj and a 1-form β=bi(x)yi called general (α, β)-metrics. We classify those projectively flat when α is projectively flat. By solving the corresponding nonlinear PDEs, the metrics in this class are totall…
We show that PQε-projectivity of two Riemannian metrics introduced in \cite{Top2003} implies affine equivalence of the metrics unless ε∈{0,−1,−3,−5,−7,...}. Moreover, we show that for ε=0, PQε-projectivity implies projective equivalence.
In this paper we introduce in study the projectively related complex Finsler metrics. We prove the complex versions of the Rapcsák's theorem and characterize the weakly Kähler and generalized Berwald projectively related complex Finsler metrics. The complex version of Hilbert's Fourth Problem is also pointed out. As an…
Study on null-projectability of Levi-Civita connections in neutral metrics.
problem Characterizing projectability of Levi-Civita connections along null parallel distributions.
method Analyzing projectability of torsion-free connections along foliations on manifolds, focusing on neutral metric signatures and mid-dimensional distributions.
result Extension of Patterson and Walker's Riemann extension metrics to null parallel distributions of any dimension.
In Finsler geometry, there are infinitely many models of constant curvature. The Funk metrics, the Hilbert-Klein metrics and the Bryant metrics are projectively flat with non-zero constant curvature. A recent example constructed by the author is projectively flat with zero curvature. In this paper, we introduce a techn…
The projective algebra p(M;F) (i.e the collection of all projective vector fields)of a Finsler space (M;F) is a finite-dimensional Lie algebra with respect to the usual Lie bracket. The projective algebra of Einstein metrics has been perpetually studied from physical and geometrical approaches. Here, the projective alg…
Two Kähler metrics on a complex manifold are called c-projectively equivalent if their J-planar curves coincide. These curves are defined by the property that the acceleration is complex proportional to the velocity. We give an explicit local description of all pairs of c-projectively equivalent Kähler metrics of arb…
Characterizes the largest two-systole in real projective spaces.
problem Finding the largest two-systole in real projective spaces.
method Integral-geometric formula for minimal two-spheres, characterizing metrics with largest two-systole.
result Each homogeneous metric on the three-dimensional real projective space is the unique metric with the largest possible two-systole among metrics with the same volume.
Trajectories of light rays in a static spacetime are described by unparametrised geodesics of the Riemannian optical metric associated with the Lorentzian spacetime metric. We investigate the uniqueness of this structure and demonstrate that two different observers, moving relative to one another, who both see the univ…
In this paper, a characteristic condition of the projectively flat Kropina metric is given. By it, we prove that a Kropina metric F=α2/β with constant curvature K and ∥β∥α=1 is projectively flat if and only if F is locally Minkowskian.
We construct new explicit toric scalar-flat K{ä}hler ALE metrics on weighted projective spaces of non-compact type, which we use to obtain smooth extremal K{ä}hler metrics on appropriate resolutions of orbifolds. In particular, we obtain new extremal metrics certain resolutions of weighted projective spaces of compact …
