Paper establishes a relation between Berwald scalar curvature and 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.

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

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…

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.

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…

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.

Study weakly weighted Einstein-Finsler metrics, showing specific curvature properties and characterizing them.

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.

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

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…

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…

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

In this paper, we study generalized Douglas-Weyl $(α, β)$-metrics. Suppose that an regular $(α, β)$-metric $F$ is not of Randers type. We prove that $F$ is a generalized Douglas-Weyl metric with vanishing S-curvature if and only if it is a Berwald metric. Moreover by ignoring the regularity, if $F$ is not a Berwald met…

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

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.

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.

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 …

Study Ricci curvature of homogeneous Finsler spaces with specific 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…

The paper finds and analyzes the Funk-Finsler structure in constant curvature spaces.

Study bounds on curvature for special Finsler metrics.

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

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.

The paper calculates curvature formulas for stable Higgs bundles.

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.

Study physical work done by isotropic vector forces along isotropic curves.

Study isotropic Riemannian maps and helices along them.

We study two types of isotropic planes: weakly isotropic and strongly isotropic planes. We prove that a Riemannian manifold of indefinite metric is conformally flat if and only if its curvature tensor vanishes on all the strongly isotropic planes. We specialize the plane axiom for Riemannian manifolds of indefinite met…

In this paper, we construct a new class of Finsler manifolds called generalized isotropic Berwald manifolds which is an extension of the class of isotropic Berwald manifolds. We prove that every generalized isotropic Berwald manifold is a generalized Douglas-Weyl manifold. On a compact generalized isotropic Berwald man…

In this paper we will show that a Lagrangian, Lorentzian surface $M^2_1$ in a complex pseudo space form $\widetilde M^2_1 (4c)$ is pseudo-isotropic if and only if $M$ is minimal. Next we will obtain a complete classification of all Lagrangian, Lorentzian surfaces which are lightlike pseudo-isotropic but not pseudo-isot…
