How a projectively flat geometry regulates F(R)-gravity theory?

Constructing Complete Projectively Flat Connections

Theorem 1. Let T 2 be the two dimensional torus. Then for any positive integer m there is a complete torsion free projectively flat connection, ∇, on T 2 such that for any point p ∈ T 2 there is a point q ∈ T 2 with the property that any broken ∇-geodesic between p and q has at least m breaks. Moreover if T 2 is viewed as a Lie group in the usual manner, this connection is invariant under trans...

On a class of locally projectively flat Finsler metrics

‎In this paper we study Finsler metrics with orthogonal invariance‎. ‎We‎ ‎find a partial differential equation equivalent to these metrics being locally projectively flat‎. ‎Some applications are given‎. ‎In particular‎, ‎we give an explicit construction of a new locally projectively flat Finsler metric of vanishing flag curvature which differs from the Finsler metric given by Berwald in 1929.

Projectively Flat Finsler Metrics of Constant Curvature

It is the Hilbert’s Fourth Problem to characterize the (not-necessarilyreversible) distance functions on a bounded convex domain in R such that straight lines are shortest paths. Distance functions induced by a Finsler metric are regarded as smooth ones. Finsler metrics with straight geodesics said to be projective. It is known that the flag curvature of any projective Finsler metric is a scala...

A Theory of Multi-Layer Flat Refractive Geometry∗ Supplementary Materials

In this section, we describe in detail the analytical solutions to compute the layer thicknesses and translation along the axis when refractive indices are unknown. As shown in the paper, the axis can be computed independently of the layer thicknesses and refractive indices. We assume that axis A, rotation R and translation orthogonal to the axis, tA, has been computed as described in Section 3...
