Abstract

In this paper we study the flag curvature of a particular class of Finsler metrics called general (α,β)(\alpha,\beta)-metrics, which are defined by a Riemannian metric α\alpha and a 11-form β\beta. The classification of such metrics with constant flag curvature are completely determined under some suitable conditions, which make them be locally projectively flat. As a result, we construct some new projectively flat Finsler metrics with flag curvature 11, 00 and 1-1, all of which are of singularity at some directions.
