In [Mu1] we underlined the motifs of holomorphic subspaces in a complex Finsler space: induced nonlinear connection, coupling connections, and the induced tangent and normal connections. In the present paper we investigate the equations of Gauss, H−and A−Codazzi, and Ricci equations of a holomorphic subspace. We deduce the link between the holomorphic curvatures of the Chern-Finsler connection ...

In this paper, we study a class of Finsler metrics defined by a Riemannian metric and a 1-form on a manifold. We find an equation that characterizes Douglas metrics on a manifold of dimension n ≥ 3.

The aim of this paper is to devise a Chern –Weil-type construction for a Finsler manifold (M,L) which is determined only by the manifold M and by the Finslerian fundamental function L.

In this paper we prove that the holonomy group of a simply connected locally projectively flat Finsler manifold of constant curvature is a finite dimensional Lie group if and only if it is flat or it is Riemannian. In particular, the holonomy group of non-Riemannian projective Finsler manifolds of nonzero constant curvature is infinite dimensional.

Finsler geometry is a natural and fundamental generalization of Riemann geometry. The Finsler structure depends on both coordinates and velocities. It is defined as a function on tangent bundle of a manifold. We use the Bianchi identities satisfied by Chern curvature to set up a gravitation theory in Berwald-Finsler space. The geometric part of the gravitational field equation is nonsymmetric i...

In Finsler geometry, the notion of parallel for Finsler tensor fields is defined, already. In this paper, however, for vector fields on a base manifold, the author studies the notion of parallel. In the last section, the obtained results are shown as compare corresponding properties to them of Riemannian geometry. Introduction The author gave the definition (1.1) of the parallel displacement al...

This article is an exposition of four loosely related remarks on the geometry of Finsler manifolds with constant positive flag curvature. The first remark is that there is a canonical Kähler structure on the space of geodesics of such a manifold. The second remark is that there is a natural way to construct a (not necessarily complete) Finsler n-manifold of constant positive flag curvature out ...

We investigate existence and uniqueness of p-means ep and the median e1 of a probability measure μ on a Finsler manifold, in relation with the convexity of the support of μ. We prove that ep is the limit point of a continuous time gradient flow. Under some additional condition which is always satisfied for p ≥ 2, a discretization of this path converges to ep. This provides an algorithm for dete...
