The aim of this article is to present a comparative review of Riemannian and Finsler geometry. The structures of cut and conjugate loci on Riemannian manifolds have been discussed by many geometers including H. Busemann, M. Berger and W.…

We provide a good dynamical framework allowing to generalize Thurston's asymmetric metric and the associated Finsler norm from Teichm\"uller space to large classes of Anosov representations. In many cases, including the space of Hitchin…

In this article we survey all known optimal isosystolic inequalities on two-dimensional Finsler tori involving the following two central notions of Finsler area: the Busemann-Hausdorff area and the Holmes-Thompson area. We also complete the…

In this paper we consider symmetric cones as symmetric spaces equipped with invariant Finsler distances, namely the Thompson distance and the Hilbert distance. We establish a correspondence between the horofunction compactification of a…

Time is, figuratively and literally, becoming the new dimension for crystalline matter. As such, rapid recent progress on time-varying media gave rise to the notion of temporal and spatiotemporal crystals. Fundamentally rethinking the role…

We present our Finsler spacetime formalism which extends the standard formulation of Finsler geometry to be applicable in physics. Finsler spacetimes are viable non-metric geometric backgrounds for physics; they guarantee well defined…

Penrose's idea of asymptotic flatness provides a framework for understanding the asymptotic structure of gravitational fields of isolated systems at null infinity. However, the studies of the asymptotic behaviour of fields near spatial…

We define a one-parameter family of canonical volume measures on Lorentzian (pre-)length spaces. In the Lorentzian setting, this allows us to define a geometric dimension - akin to the Hausdorff dimension for metric spaces - that…

Isometric class of minimal surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space $\mathbb{R}^3$ has the rigidity: if two simply connected minimal surfaces are isometric, then one of them is congruent to a surface in the specific one-parameter family, called…

Finsler geometry is a natural and fundamental generalization of Riemann geometry, and is a tool to research Lorentz invariance violation. We find the connection between the most general modified dispersion relation and a pseudo-Finsler…

In this paper, we discuss how a Gromov-Hausdorff-like distance function over the space of all isometric classes of compact $C^k$-Riemannian manifolds should be defined in the aspect of the Riemannan submanifold theory, where $k\geq 1$. The…

We consider a triality between the Zermelo navigation problem, the geodesic flow on a Finslerian geometry of Randers type, and spacetimes in one dimension higher admitting a timelike conformal Killing vector field. From the latter…

The properties of the stable distance over stable spacetimes are used as a reference to propose a simplified, abstract notion of spacetime. The discussion shows that spacetime, with its topology, causal order and (upper semi-continuous)…
