Matsumoto Metrics of Reversible Curvature

General Mathematics 2015-11-04 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we study the reversibility of Riemann curvature and Ricci curvature for the Matsumoto metric and prove three global results. First, we prove that a Matsumoto metric is R-reversible if and only if it is R-quadratic. Then we show that a Matsumoto metric is Ricci-reversible if and only if it is Ricci-quadratic. Finally, we prove that every weakly Einstein Matsumoto metric is Ricci-reversible.
