A comparison theorem for Finsler submanifolds and its applications

Differential Geometry 2017-10-31 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the conormal bundle over a submanifold in a Finsler manifold and establish a volume comparison theorem. As an application, we derive a lower estimate for length of closed geodesics in a Finsler manifold. In the reversible case, a lower bound of injective radius is also obtained.
