Paper establishes a relation between Berwald scalar curvature and S-curvature.

New findings show functional inequalities fail on Finsler manifolds with positive S-curvature.

In this paper, we first deduce a formula of S-curvature of homogeneous Finsler spaces in terms of Killing vector fields. Then we prove that a homogeneous Finsler space has isotropic S-curvature if and only if it has vanishing S-curvature. In the special case that the homogeneous Finsler space is a Randers space, we giv…

Calculates S-curvature and mean Berwald curvature in homogeneous Finsler spaces.

The flag curvature is a natural extension of the sectional curvature in Riemannian geometry, and the S-curvature is a non-Riemannian quantity which vanishes for Riemannian metrics. There are (incomplete) non-Riemannian Finsler metrics on an open subset in R^n with negative flag curvature and constant S-curvature. In th…

We give a complete classification of homogeneous $(α,β)$-metrics with positive flag curvature and vanishing S-curvature.

In this paper, we find a condition on $(α, β)$-metrics under which the notions of isotropic S-curvature, weakly isotropic S-curvature and isotropic mean Berwald curvature are equivalent.

The study of curvature properties of homogeneous Finsler spaces with $(α, β)$-metrics is one of the central problems in Riemann-Finsler geometry. In the present paper, the existence of invariant vector fields on homogeneous Finsler spaces with square $(α, β)$-metric and Randers changed square $(α, β)$-metric is proved.…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition on a Randers space for the existence of a measure for which Shen's S-curvature vanishes everywhere. Moreover, such a measure coincides with the Busemann-Hausdorff measure up to a constant multiplication.

An $(α,β)$-metric is defined by a Riemannian metric and $1$-form. In this paper, we investigate the known characterization for $(α,β)$-metrics of isotropic S-curvature. We show that such a characterization should hold in dimension $n\ge 3$, and for the 2-dimensional case, there is one more class of isotropic S-curvatur…

Characterizes two-dimensional generalized Berwald metrics with vanishing S-curvature.

In this paper, we study one of the open problems in Finsler geometry which presented by Matsumoto-Shimada about the existence of P-reducible metric which is not C-reducible. For this aim, we study a class of Finsler metrics called generalized P-reducible metrics that contains the class of P-reducible metrics. We prove …

In this paper, we investigate the spherically symmetric Finsler metrics with isotropic S-curvature and obtain a characterized equation. As an application, we prove that these metrics with Douglas type must be Randers metrics or Berwald metrics. This result leads to two classification theorems.

Study Ricci curvature of homogeneous Finsler spaces with specific metrics.

Paper shows isotropic $E$- and $S$-curvatures are equivalent in warped Finsler metrics.

An $(α,β)$-metric is defined by a Riemannian metric $α$ and $1$-form $β$. In this paper, we study a known class of two-dimensional $(α,β)$-metrics of vanishing S-curvature. We determine the local structure of those metrics and show that those metrics are Einsteinian (equivalently, isotropic flag curvature) but generall…

The paper studies weighted Ricci curvatures and characterizes Randers metrics.

New tools study curvature measures of convex bodies, revealing structured spaces.

In this paper, we introduce a new type of Finsler metrics, called $(α_1,α_2)$-metrics. We define the notion of the good datum of a homogeneous $(α_1,α_2)$-metric and use that to study the geometric properties. In particular, we give a formula of the S-curvature and deduce a condition for the S-curvature to be vanishing…

Study on special Finsler metrics with conditions for Riemannian and isotropic properties.

The Funk-Finsler structure is constructed in hyperbolic models, including the Klein unit disc.

The flag curvature of a Finsler metric is called a Riemannian quantity because it is an extension of sectional curvature in Riemannian geometry. In Finsler geometry, there are several non-Riemannian quantities such as the (mean) Cartan torsion, the (mean) Landsberg curvature and the S-curvature, which all vanish for Ri…

We consider the problem of the combinatorial computation of the first Chern class of a circle bundle. N.Mnev found such a formula in terms of canonical shellings. It represents certain invariant of a triangulation computed by analyzing cyclic word in 3-character alphabet associated to the bundle. This curvature is a ki…

The purpose of this paper is to show that in a finite dimensional metric space with Alexandrov's curvature bounded below, Monge's transport problem for the quadratic cost admits a unique solution.

We introduce a new class of perturbations of the Seiberg-Witten equations. Our perturbations offer flexibility in the way the Seiberg-Witten invariants are constructed and also shed a new light to LeBrun's curvature inequalities.

The paper calculates curvature formulas for stable Higgs bundles.

In this paper, we study the second approximate Matsumoto metric on a manifold M. We prove that F is of scalar flag curvature and isotropic S-curvature if and only if it is isotropic Berwald metric with almost isotropic flag curvature.

The paper proves rigidity results for non-positively curved homogeneous Finsler metrics.

Study reveals how manifold geometry impacts linear regression solutions.

The paper explores how Finsler manifolds differ from Riemannian ones in functional inequalities.

In this paper we classify all simply connected five dimensional nilpotent Lie groups which admit $(α,β)$-metrics of Berwald and Douglas type defined by a left invariant Riemannian metric and a left invariant vector field. During this classification we give the geodesic vectors, Levi-Civita connection, curvature tensor,…

The paper finds the Finsler structure of Apollonian weak metric on unit disc.

In this paper, we study the sharp constants of quantitative Hardy and Rellich inequalities on nonreversible Finsler manifolds equipped with arbitrary measures. In particular, these inequalities can be globally refined by adding remainder terms like the Brezis-Vázquez improvement, if Finsler manifolds are of strictly ne…

The paper examines Randers metrics with isotropic scalar curvature properties.

In this paper, first we prove the existence of invariant vector field on a homogeneous Finsler space with infinite series $(α, β)$-metric and exponential metric. Next, we deduce an explicit formula for the the $S$-curvature of homogeneous Finsler space with these metrics. Using this formula, we further derive the formu…

We give upper and lower bounds for the ratio of the volume of metric ball to the area of the metric sphere in Finsler-Hadamard manifolds with pinched S-curvature. We apply these estimates to find the limit at the infinity for this ratio. Derived estimates are the generalization of the well-known result in Riemannian ge…

In this paper, we provide conceptional explanations for the geodesic and Jacobi field correspondences for homothetic navigation, and then let them guide us to the shortcuts to some well known flag curvature and S-curvature formulas. They also help us directly see the local correspondence between isoparametric functions…

In this paper we prove first order differential Harnack estimates for positive solutions of the heat equation (in the sense of distributions) under closed Finsler-Ricci flows. We assume mild non-linearities (in terms of the Chern connection, $\mathbf{S}-$curvature and Hessian) and suitable Ricci curvature bounds throug…

Proves minimality of tensor varieties, generalizing previous results.

In this paper, we introduce the weighted projective Ricci curvature as an extension of projective Ricci curvature introduced by Z. Shen. We characterize the class of Randers metrics of weighted projective Ricci flat curvature. We find the necessary and sufficient condition under which a Kropina metric has weighted proj…

Sprays with vanishing X-curvature are studied in this paper.

We study the properties of the $n$-volumic scalar curvature in this note. Lott-Sturm-Villani's curvature-dimension condition ${\rm CD}(κ,n)$ was showed to imply Gromov's $n$-volumic scalar curvature $\geq nκ$ under an additional $n$-dimensional condition and we show the stability of $n$-volumic scalar curvature $\geq κ…

The paper refines Steinerberger curvature for block graphs and bridges.

The aim of this note is to improve upon our earlier result which translates Weyl's (curvature) formulation of Chern character of a smooth vector bundle into the language of residues. The dualized Chern character is the functional on smooth differential forms on M. In our previous paper, this functional has been express…
