In this paper, we study the Randers metrics of weakly isotropic scalar curvature. We prove that a Randers metric of weakly isotropic scalar curvature must be of isotropic $S$-curvature. Further, we prove that a conformally flat Randers…
A Randers space is a differentiable manifold equipped with a Randers metric. It is the sum of a Riemannian metric and a one-form on the base manifold. The compatibility of a linear connection with the metric means that the parallel…
The notion of a Douglas space of second kind of a Finsler space with $(\alpha, \beta)$-metric was introduced by I. Y. Lee [9]. Since then, so many geometers have studied this topic e. g., [14]. In this paper, we prove that a Douglas space…
We obtain some results in both Lorentz and Finsler geometries, by using a correspondence between the conformal structure (Causality) of standard stationary spacetimes on $M=\R\times S$ and Randers metrics on $S$. In particular, for…
We proof that in dimension two, a Finsler metric is Douglas and generalized Berwald, if and only if it is Berwald or a Randers metric $\alpha + \beta$, where $\beta$ is closed and is of constant length with respect to $\alpha$.
In this short article, using a left-invariant Randers metric $F$, we define a new left-invariant Randers metric $\tilde{F}$. We show that $F$ is of Berwald (Douglas) type if and only if $\tilde{F}$ is of Berwald (Douglas) type. In the case…
In this paper, we consider the cylindrically symmetric Finsler metrics and we obtain their Douglas curvature. Furthermore, we obtain the differential equation system of the cylindrically symmetric Finsler metrics with vanishing Douglas…
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.
In the present paper we study Randers metics of Berwald type on simply connected 4-dimensional real Lie groups admitting invariant hypercomplex structure. On these spaces, the Randers metrics arising from invariant hyper-Hermitian metrics…
In this paper, the Douglas curvature of (\alpha,\beta)-metrics, a special class of Finsler metrics defined by a Riemannian metric \alpha and a 1-form \beta, is studied. These metrics with vanishing Douglas curvature in dimension n\geq3 are…
In this paper, we study a class of two-dimensional Finsler metrics defined by a Riemannian metric $\alpha$ and a 1-form $\beta$. We characterize those metrics which are Douglasian or locally projectively flat by some equations. In…
In the present paper, we study the Randers metric on two-spheres of revolution in order to obtain new families of Finsler of Randers type metrics with simple cut locus. We determine the geodesics behavior, conjugate and cut loci of some…
In some recent papers, the relations existing between the metric properties of Randers spaces and the conformal geometry of stationary Lorentzian manifolds were discovered and investigated. In this note, we focus on the equality between the…
In this paper, we give the flag curvature formula of general $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics of Berwald type. We study conformally related $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics, especially general $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics that are conformally related to…

Geodesics in Randers spaces of constant curvature are classified.
A linear connection on a Finsler manifold is called compatible to the metric if its parallel transports preserve the Finslerian length of tangent vectors. Generalized Berwald manifolds are Finsler manifolds equipped with a compatible linear…
