The (pseudo-)Riemann-metrizability and Ricci-flatness of Finsler spaces with $m$-Kropina metric $F = \alpha^{1+m}\beta^{-m}$ of Berwald type are investigated. We prove that the affine connection on $F$ can locally be understood as the…

We investigate whether Szabo's metrizability theorem can be extended to Finsler spaces of indefinite signature. For smooth, positive definite Finsler metrics, this important theorem states that, if the metric is of Berwald type (i.e., its…

A Riemannian metric is of constant curvature if and only if it is locally projectively flat. There are infinitely many locally projectively flat Finsler metrics of constant curvature, that are special solutions to the Hilbert's Fourth…

We investigate the relation between weighted quasi-metric Spaces and Finsler Spaces. We show that the induced metric of a Randers space with reversible geodesics is a weighted quasi-metric space.

By performing required evaluations, we show that in the Finsleroid-regular space the Landsberg-space condition just degenerates to the Berwald-space condition (at any dimension number $N\ge2$). Simple and clear expository representations…

We investigate the local metrizability of Finsler spaces with $m$-Kropina metric $F = \alpha^{1+m}\beta^{-m}$, where $\beta$ is a closed null 1-form. We show that such a space is of Berwald type if and only if the (pseudo-)Riemannian metric…

The aim of this paper is to expose some geometrical properties of the locally Minkowski-Cartan space with the Berwald-Moor metric of momenta. This space is regarded as a particular case of the $m$-th root Cartan space. Thus, Section 2…
