This paper is concerned with the problem of determining whether a projective-equivalence class of sprays is the geodesic class of a Finsler function. We address both the local and the global aspects of this problem. We present our results…

We find the precise number of non-K\"ahler $Sp(n)$-invariant Einstein metrics on the generalized flag manifold $M=Sp(n)/(U(p)\times U(n-p))$ with $n\geq 3$ and $1\leq p\leq n-1$. We use an analysis on parametric systems of polynomial…

We formulate an approach to the geometry of Riemann-Cartan spaces provided with nonholonomic distributions defined by generic off-diagonal and nonsymmetric metrics inducing effective nonlinear and affine connections. Such geometries can be…

We consider the anisotropic Calderon problem of recovering a conductivity matrix or a Riemannian metric from electrical boundary measurements in three and higher dimensions. In the earlier work \cite{DKSaU}, it was shown that a metric in a…

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 paper we classify all non-Berwaldian Randers metrics of Douglas type arising from invariant hyper-Hermitian metrics on simply connected four-dimensional real Lie groups. Also, the formulas of the flag curvature are given and it is…

In this article, we show that a Finsler--Laplacian introduced previously can detect changes in the Finsler metric that the marked length spectrum cannot. We also construct examples of non-reversible Finsler metrics in negative curvature…

We investigate whether Szabo's metrizability theorem can be extended to Finsler spaces of indefinite signature. For smooth, positive definite Finsler metrics, this important theorem states that, if the metric is of Berwald type (i.e., its…

We prove that a Finsler metric is nonpositively curved in the sense of Busemann if and only if it is affinely equivalent to a Riemannian metric of nonpositive sectional curvature. In other terms, such Finsler metrics are precisely Berwald…

We study the cylindrical symmetric Finsler metrics. We obtain the system of differential equations of such metrics which are projectively flat. We give a family of solutions of this system. Examples are included.

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…

A systematic study of (smooth, strong) cone structures $\C$ and Lorentz-Finsler metrics $L$ is carried out. As a link between both notions, cone triples $(\Omega,T, F)$, where $\Omega$ (resp. $T$) is a 1-form (resp. vector field) with…

It's well known that the n-sphere $S^n$ is the universal double covering of the $n$-dimensional real projective space $\mathbb{R}P^n$ and then any Finsler metric on $\mathbb{R}P^n$ induces a Finsler metric of $S^n$. In this paper, we prove…
