Generalized Douglas-Weyl Finsler Metrics
In this paper, we study generalized Douglas-Weyl Finsler metrics. We find some conditions under which the class of generalized Douglas-Weyl (&alpha, &beta)-metric with vanishing S-curvature reduce to the class of Berwald metrics.
متن کاملOn C3-Like Finsler Metrics
In this paper, we study the class of of C3-like Finsler metrics which contains the class of semi-C-reducible Finsler metric. We find a condition on C3-like metrics under which the notions of Landsberg curvature and mean Landsberg curvature are equivalent.
متن کاملBirefringence in pseudo–Finsler spacetimes
Based on the analogue spacetime programme, and many other ideas currently mooted in “quantum gravity”, there is considerable ongoing speculation that the usual pseudoRiemannian (Lorentzian) manifolds of general relativity might eventually be modified at short distances. Two specific modifications that are often advocated are the adoption of Finsler geometries (or more specifically, pseudo-Finsl...
متن کاملFermat Principle in Finsler Spacetimes
It is shown that, on a manifold with a Finsler metric of Lorentzian signature, the lightlike geodesics satisfy the following variational principle. Among all lightlike curves from a point q (emission event) to a timelike curve γ (worldline of receiver), the lightlike geodesics make the arrival time stationary. Here “arrival time” refers to a parametrization of the timelike curve γ. This variati...
متن کاملProjective complex Finsler metrics
In this paper we obtain the conditions in which two complex Finsler metrics are projective, i.e. have the same geodesics as point sets. Two important classes of such metrics are submitted to our attention: conformal projective and weakly projective complex Finsler spaces. For each of them we study the transformations of the canonical connection. We pay attention for local projectivity with a pu...
