23 results for unicorn

We extend the notion of unicorn paths between two arcs introduced by Hensel, Przytycki and Webb to the case where we replace one arc with a geodesic asymptotic to a lamination. Using these paths, we give new proofs of the results of Klarreich and Schleimer identifying the Gromov boundaries of the curve graph and the ar…

result Proves Laugwitz and Landsberg Unicorn conjectures for Minkowski norms with the specified symmetry.

Finsleroid-Finsler metrics form an important class of singular (y-local) Finslerian metrics. They were introduced by G. S. Asanov in 2006. As a special case Asanov produced examples of Landsberg spaces of dimension at least three that are not of Berwald type. These are called Unicorns [5]. The existence of regular (y -…

Classifies cosmological Finsler spacetimes, finding viable non-stationary models.

problem Locating viable non-stationary Finsler spacetimes in cosmology.
method Locally classified all possible cosmological homogeneous and isotropic Landsberg-type Finsler structures in 4-dimensions.
result Identified unique Finsler, non-Berwaldian Landsberg generalization of Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker geometry.

Given a Finsler space, we introduce a system of partial differential equations, called the Landsberg equation. Based on a careful analysis of the Landsberg equation and the observation that the solution space is invariant under the linear isometries of the tangent Minkowski spaces, we prove that an (α1,α2)(α_1, α_2)-metric …

In this paper, we study general (α,β)(α,β)-metrics which αα is a Riemannian metric and ββ is an one-form. We have proven that every weak Landsberg general (α,β)(α,β)-metric is a Berwald metric, where ββ is a closed and conformal one-form. This show that there exist no generalized unicorn metric in this class of general $(…

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

problem Investigating compatibility conditions on spherically symmetric Finsler metrics.
method Using the inverse problem of calculus of variations, the paper focuses on Landsberg and Berwald types.
result All Landsberg spherically symmetric manifolds in higher dimensions are either Riemannian or have specific geodesic spray formulas.

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…
