Abstract
Killing vector fields are defined on Finsler manifold. The Killing symmetry is reformulated simply as by using the Killing non-linear 1-form and the spray operator with the Finsler non-linear connection. is related to the generalization of Killing tensors on Finsler manifold, and the condition gives an analytical method of finding higher derivative conserved quantities, which may be called hidden conserved quantities. We show two examples: the Carter constant on Kerr spacetime and the Runge-Lentz vectors in Newtonian gravity.
