In this paper, we study a class of Finsler metrics composed by a Riemann metric $\alpha=\sqrt{a_{ij}(x)y^i y^j}$ and a $1$-form $\beta=b_i(x)y^i$ called general ($\alpha$, $\beta$)-metrics. We classify those projectively flat when $\alpha$…

If the flag curvature of a Finsler manifold reduces to sectional curvature, then locally either the Finsler metric is Riemannian, or the flag curvature is isotropic.

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…

An isometry of a Finsler space is called Clifford-Wolf translation (CW-translation) if it moves all points the same distance. A Finsler space $(M, F)$ is called Clifford-Wolf homogeneous (CW-homogeneous) if for any $x, y\in M$ there is a…

The Finslerian unit ball is called the {\it Finsleroid} if the covering indicatrix is a space of constant curvature. We prove that Finsler spaces with such indicatrices possess the remarkable property that the tangent spaces are conformally…

Fundamental function in Finsler manifold defines a metrices that depend on a point and a direction. At any point tangent space is a Riemannian and an indicatrix is a convex hypersurface. In this paper a mean curvature of the indicatrix is…

A Finsler metric is geodesically reversible if geodesics remain geodesics after a change of orientation. Asymmetric norms on vector spaces and Funk metrics in the interior of convex bodies are examples of geodesically reversible metrics…

This paper introduces a new quantity in Finsler geometry, called the generalized Berwald projective Weyl ($GB\widetilde{W}$) metric. The $C$-projective invariance of these metrics is demonstrated, and it is shown that they constitute a…

In this note it is shown that Berwald spaces admitting the same norm-preserving torsion-free affine connection have the same (weighted) Ricci curvatures. Combing this with Szab\'o's Berwald metrization theorem one can apply the…

In this paper, we explore the similarity between normal homogeneity and $\delta$-homogeneity in Finsler geometry. They are both non-negatively curved Finsler spaces. We show that any connected $\delta$-homogeneous Finsler space is…

Finsler spacetime geometry is a canonical extension of Riemannian spacetime geometry. It is based on a general length measure for curves (which does not necessarily arise from a spacetime metric) and it is used as an effective description…
