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...
متن کاملOn 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.
متن کاملλ-Projectively Related Finsler Metrics and Finslerian Projective Invariants
In this paper, by using the concept of spherically symmetric metric, we defne the notion of λ-projectively related metrics as an extension of projectively related metrics. We construct some non-trivial examples of λ-projectively related metrics. Let F and G be two λ-projectively related metrics on a manifold M. We find the relation between the geodesics of F and G and prove that any geodesic of...
متن کاملR-complex Finsler Spaces with (α, Β)-metric
In this paper we introduce the class of R-complex Finsler spaces with (α, β)-metrics and study some important exemples: R-complex Randers spaces, R-complex Kropina spaces. The metric tensor field of a R-complex Finsler space with (α, β)-metric is determined (§2). A special approach is dedicated to the R-complex Randers spaces (§3).

متن کاملOn a Class of Two-Dimensional Douglas and Projectively Flat Finsler Metrics
We study a class of two-dimensional Finsler metrics defined by a Riemannian metric α and a 1-form β. We characterize those metrics which are Douglasian or locally projectively flat by some equations. In particular, it shows that the known fact that β is always closed for those metrics in higher dimensions is no longer true in two-dimensional case. Further, we determine the local structures of t...
