The quest of the offering article is to investigate \emph{almost Riemann soliton} and \emph{gradient almost Riemann soliton} in a non-cosymplectic normal almost contact metric manifold $M^3$. Before all else, it is proved that if the metric…

In this paper, we introduce a broad class of metrics on the slit tangent bundle of Finsler manifolds, termed \emph{$F$-natural metrics}. These metrics parallel the well-established $g$-natural metrics on the tangent bundles of Riemannian…

This thesis contains an introduction to the method of average in Finsler geometry. The method is applied to Berwald spaces, obtaining geodesic rigidity conditions. We prove that the Levi-Civita connection of any Riemannian metric affine…

The aim of the present paper is to provide a global presentation of the theory of special Finsler manifolds. We introduce and investigate globally (or intrinsically, free from local coordinates) many of the most important and most commonly…

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…

Given a closed hyperbolic Riemannian surface, the aim of the present paper is to describe an explicit construction of smooth deformations of the hyperbolic metric into Finsler metrics that are not Riemannian and whose properties are such…

Finslerian extensions of Special and General Relativity -- commonly referred to as Very Special and Very General Relativity -- necessitate the development of a unified Lorentz-Finsler geometry. However, the scope of this geometric framework…

By a Randers' structure on a manifold $M$ we mean a Finsler structure $L^*=L+\alpha$, where $L$ is a Riemannian structure and $\alpha$ is a 1-form on $M$. This structure was first introduced by Randers ~\cite{[8]} from the standpoint of…

The (pseudo-)Riemann-metrizability and Ricci-flatness of Finsler spaces with $m$-Kropina metric $F = \alpha^{1+m}\beta^{-m}$ of Berwald type are investigated. We prove that the affine connection on $F$ can locally be understood as the…

We study extrinsic geometry of a codimension-one foliation ${\cal F}$ of a closed Finsler space $(M,F)$, in particular, of a Randers space $(M,\alpha+\beta)$. Using a unit vector field $\nu$ orthogonal (in the Finsler sense) to the leaves…

We prove that in a Finsler manifold with vanishing $\chi$-curvature (in particular with constant flag curvature) some non-Riemannian geometric structures are geodesically invariant and hence they induce a set of non-Riemannian first…

Finslerian extension of the theory of relativity implies that space-time can be not only in an amorphous state which is described by Riemann geometry but also in ordered, i.e. crystalline states which are described by Finsler geometry.…

In this paper we study warped product Finsler metrics and show that the notion of isotropic $E$-curvature and isotropic $S$-curvature are equivalent for this class of metrics.

In this paper we present the m-th root Finsler geometries of the three and four dimensional Bogoslovsky-Goenner metrics (good Finslerian anisotropic models in Special Relativity), in the sense of their Cartan torsion and curvature…

In this paper, studying the inverse problem, we establish a curvature compatibility condition on a spherically symmetric Finsler metric. As an application, we characterize the spherically symmetric metrics of scalar curvature. We construct…

In this work, we consider a class of Finsler metrics using the warped product notion introduced by Chen, S. and Zhao (2018), with another "warping", one that is consistent with static spacetimes. We will give the PDE characterization for…

Modern formulation of Finsler geometry of a manifold M utilizes the equivalence between this geometry and the Riemannian geometry of VTM, the vertical bundle over the tangent bundle of M, treating TM as the base space. We argue that this…

In this paper, we prove that every m-th root metric with isotropic mean Berwald curvature reduces to a weakly Berwald metric. Then we show that an m-th root metric with isotropic mean Landsberg curvature is a weakly Landsberg metric. We…

We prove that sub-Riemannian manifolds are infinitesimally Hilbertian (i.e., the associated Sobolev space is Hilbert) when equipped with an arbitrary Radon measure. The result follows from an embedding of metric derivations into the space…

We show that if a Finsler metric on $S^2$ with reversibility $r$ has flag curvatures $K$ satisfying $(\frac{r}{r+1})^2 <K \leq 1$, then closed geodesics with specific contact-topological properties cannot exist, in particular there are no…
