Some curvature properties of Cartan spaces with mth root metrics

Differential Geometry 2017-06-27 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we prove that every m-th root metric with isotropic mean Berwald curvature reduces to a weakly Berwald metric. Then we show that an m-th root metric with isotropic mean Landsberg curvature is a weakly Landsberg metric. We find necessary and sufficient condition under which conformal β\beta-change of an m-th root metric be locally dually flat. Finally, we prove that the conformal β\beta-change of locally projectively flat m-th root metrics are locally Minkowskian.
