In this paper, we characterize locally dually flat generalized m-th root Finsler metrics. Then we find a condition under which a generalized m-th root metric is projectively related to a m-th root metric. Finally, we prove that if a…

In this paper, we study generalized Douglas-Weyl $(\alpha, \beta)$-metrics. Suppose that an regular $(\alpha, \beta)$-metric $F$ is not of Randers type. We prove that $F$ is a generalized Douglas-Weyl metric with vanishing S-curvature if…
