On the Finsler Geometry of Four-Dimensional Einstein Lie Groups

AbstractIn this paper, we study left invariant $$(\alpha ,\beta )$$(α,β)-metrics on four-dimensional real Lie groups equipped with left invariant Einstein Riemannian metrics. We classify all left…

On Einstein Matsumoto metrics

The 3-dimensional rigidity theorem is proved for a (weak) Einstein Matsumoto metric if and only if α is Ricci flat and β is a parallel 1-form with respect to α.

Invariant Einstein Kropina metrics on Lie groups and homogeneous spaces.

In this article, we study Einstein Kropina metrics on Lie groups and homogeneous spaces. We give a simple way to build the Einstein Kropina metrics on Lie groups. As an example of this method, we…

On the Existence of Homogeneous Geodesics in Homogeneous Kropina Spaces

Recently, it is shown that each regular homogeneous Finsler space M admits at least one homogeneous geodesic through any point $$o\in M$$ o ∈ M . The purpose of this article is to study the existence…

On Kropina metrics

In this paper we study the curvature properties of Kropina metric. We find expressions for Riemann curvature and Ricci curvature of a Kropina metric when the 1-form $$\beta $$ is a Killing form of…

ON PROJECTIVE RICCI FLAT KROPINA METRICS

In this paper, we study and characterize projective Ricci flat Kropina metrics. By using the formulas of S-curvature and Ricci curvature for Kropina metrics, we obtain the formula of the projective…

A class of Einstein (α, β)-metrics

In this paper, we study a special class of Finsler metrics, called (α, β)-metrics, which are defined by F = αϕ(β/α), where α is a Riemannian metric and β is a 1-form. We show that if ϕ = ϕ(s) is a…

ON A CLASS OF PROJECTIVELY FLAT FINSLER METRICS WITH CONSTANT FLAG CURVATURE

In this paper, we study a class of Finsler metrics defined by a Riemannian metric and a 1-form. We classify those projectively flat with constant flag curvature.

On projective two-dimensional Finsler spaces with special metric

We present the English translation of the paper where one special class of Finsler spaces was introduced. Now this class is known as so called "Kropina spaces". The article was written in 1958 and…

Zermelo navigation on Riemannian manifolds

In this paper, we study Zermelo navigation on Riemannian manifolds and use that to solve a long standing problem in Finsler geometry, namely the complete classification of strongly convex Randers…

On Finsler geometry

On introduit une connexion nouvelle dans un espace de Finsler, qui resout en meme temps le probleme de l'equivalence. Dans cette connexion la courbure se partage en deux parties, dites respectivement…
