It is shown that the projectivised tangent bundle of Finsler spaces with the Chern connection has a contact metric structure under a conformal transformation with certain condition of the Finsler function and moreover it is locally isometric to E × Sm−1(4) for m > 2 and flat for m = 2 if and only if the Cartan tensor vanishes, i.e., the Finsler space is a Riemannian manifold.

In 1977, M. Matsumoto and R. Miron [9] constructed an orthonormal frame for an n-dimensional Finsler space, called ‘Miron frame’. The present authors [1, 2, 3, 10, 11] discussed four-dimensional Finsler spaces equipped with such frame. M. Matsumoto [7, 8] proved that in a three-dimensional Berwald space, all the main scalars are h-covariant constants and the h-connection vector vanishes. He als...

The notion of holomorphic bi-flag curvature for a complex Finsler space (M, F ) is defined with respect to the Chern complex linear connection on the pull-back tangent bundle. By means of holomorphic curvature and holomorphic flag curvature of a complex Finsler space, a special approach is devoted to obtain the characterizations of the holomorphic bi-flag curvature. For the class of generalized...

We develop the method of anholonomic frames with associated nonlinear connec-tion (in brief, N–connection) structure and show explicitly how geometries with lo-cal anisotropy (various type of Finsler–Lagrange–Cartan–Hamilton geometry) can bemodeled in the metric–affine spaces. There are formulated the criteria when such gen-eralized Finsler metrics are effectively induced in the...

We formulate an approach to the geometry of Riemann–Cartan spaces provided with nonholonomic distributions defined by generic off-diagonal and nonsymmetric metrics inducing effective nonlinear and affine connections. Such geometries can be modelled by moving nonholonomic frames on (pseudo) Riemannian manifolds and describe various types of nonholonomic Einstein, Eisenhart–Moffat and Finsler–Lag...

The notion of holomorphic bisectional curvature for a complex Finsler space (M, F ) is defined with respect to the Chern complex linear connection on the pull-back tangent bundle. By means of holomorphic curvature and holomorphic flag curvature of a complex Finsler space, a special approach is emloyed to obtain the characterizations of the holomorphic bisectional curvature. For the class of gen...

Adopting the pullback formalism, a new linear connection in Finsler geometry has been introduced and investigated.
 Such unifies all formerly known connections some other not so far. Also, our is Finslerian version of Tripathi Riemannian geometry. The existence uniqueness such are proved intrinsically. An explicit intrinsic expression relating this to Cartan obtained. Some generalized cons...

In this article, we review the current status of Finsler–Lagrange geometry and generalizations. The goal is to aid non–experts on Finsler spaces, but physicists and geometers skilled in general relativity and particle theories, to understand the crucial importance of such geometric methods for applications in modern physics. We also would like to orient mathematicians working in generalized Fin...
