There are two definitions of Einstein-Finsler spaces introduced by Akbar-Zadeh, which we will show is equal along the integral curves of $I$-invariant projective vector fields. The sub-algebra of the $C$-projective vector fields, leaving…
In this paper we study a class of Finsler metrics defined by a Riemannian metric and an 1-form. We classify those of projectively flat in dimension $n\geq3$ by a special class of deformations. The results show that the projective flatness…
For every Finsler metric $F$ we associate a Riemannian metric $g_F$ (called the Binet-Legendre metric). The transformation $F \mapsto g_F$ is $C^0$-stable and has good smoothness properties, in contrast to previous constructions. The…

The L\'evi-Civita connection of a Riemannian manifold is a metric (compatible) linear connection, uniquely determined by its vanishing torsion. It is extremal in the sense that it has minimal torsion at each point. We can extend this idea…
We explore a connection between the Finslerian area functional and well-investigated Cartan functionals to prove new Bernstein theorems, uniqueness and removability results for Finsler-minimal graphs, as well as enclosure theorems and…

We study the space of complete Riemannian metrics of nonnegative curvature on the plane equipped with the C^k topology. If k is infinite, we show that the space is homeomorphic to the separable Hilbert space. For any k we prove that the…
We provide an extension of Obata's theorem to Finsler geometry and establish some rigidity results based on a second order differential equation. Mainly, we prove that every complete connected Finsler manifold of positive constant flag…
A diffeomorphism of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds is called sectional curvature preserving if it preserves the sectional curvature of all the nondegenerate 2-planes. We consider a similar condition for degenerate 2-planes and we prove that…
On a Finsler manifold $(M,L)$, we consider the change $L\longrightarrow\bar{L}(x,y)=e^{\sigma(x)}L(x,y)+\beta (x,y)$, which we call a $\beta$-conformal change. This change generalizes various types of changes in Finsler geometry: conformal,…
A Finsler space is called Ricci-quadratic if its Ricci curvature $Ric(x,y)$ is quadratic in $y$. It is called a Berwald space if its Chern connection defines a linear connection directly on the underlying manifold $M$. In this article, we…
We study extrinsic geometry of a codimension-one foliation ${\cal F}$ of a closed Finsler space $(M,F)$, in particular, of a Randers space $(M,\alpha+\beta)$. Using a unit vector field $\nu$ orthogonal (in the Finsler sense) to the leaves…
For the general class of pseudo-Finsler spaces with $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions such that these admit a Finsler spacetime structure. This means that the fundamental tensor has Lorentzian…
Here, it is introduced a concept of convolution metric in Finslerian Geometry. This convolution metric is a kind of function obtained by a given mathematical operation between two Finslerian metrics. Some basic properties of the Finslerian…
