In this paper, we use the flag curvature formula for homogeneous Finsler spaces in our previous work to classify odd dimensional smooth coset spaces admitting positively curved reversible homogeneous Finsler metrics. We will show that the…
A Riemannian metric is of constant curvature if and only if it is locally projectively flat. There are infinitely many locally projectively flat Finsler metrics of constant curvature, that are special solutions to the Hilbert's Fourth…
One can describe isomorphism of two compact hyperbolic Riemann surfaces of the same genus by a measure-theoretic property: a chosen isomorphism of their fundamental groups corresponds to a homeomorphism on the boundary of the Poincar\'e…
In this paper, we study a new class of Finsler metrics, F=\alpha\phi(b^2,s), s:=\beta/\alpha, defined by a Riemannian metric \alpha and 1-form \beta. It is called general (\alpha, \beta) metric. In this paper, we assume \phi be coefficient…

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…
The flag curvature is a natural Finsler extension of the sectional curvature in Riemannian geometry. However, there are many non-Riemannian quantities which interact with the flag curvature. In this paper, we introduce a notion of weighted…
In this paper, we introduce the flag-wise positively curved condition for Finsler spaces (the (FP) Condition), which means that in each tangent plane, we can find a flag pole in this plane such that the corresponding flag has positive flag…
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…
This article is an exposition of four loosely related remarks on the geometry of Finsler manifolds with constant positive flag curvature. <p> The first remark is that there is a canonical Kahler structure on the space of geodesics of such a…
The validity of functional inequalities on Finsler metric measure manifolds is based on three non-Riemannian quantities, namely, the reversibility, flag curvature and $S$-curvature induced by the measure. Under mild assumptions on the…
In this paper, we use the technique of Finslerian submersion to deduce a flag curvature formula for homogeneous Finsler spaces. Based on this formula, we give a complete classification of even-dimensional smooth coset spaces $G/H$ admitting…
In this paper, we consider doubly warped product (DWP) Finsler manifolds with some non-Riemannian curvature properties. First, we study Berwald and isotropic mean Berwald DWP-Finsler manifolds. Then we prove that every proper Douglas…
In this paper by using left invariant Riemannian metrics on some 3-dimensional Lie groups we construct some complete non-Riemannian Berwald spaces of non-positive flag curvature and several families of geodesically complete locally…
The main result of this paper is an expression of the flag curvature of a submanifold of a Randers-Minkowski space $({\mathscr V},F)$ in terms of invariants related to its Zermelo data $(h,W)$. More precisely, these invariants are 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…
In this paper, we study locally projectively flat Finsler metrics with constant flag curvature ${\bf K}$. We prove those are totally determined by their behaviors at the origin by solving some nonlinear PDEs. The classifications when ${\bf…
A smooth curve on a homogeneous manifold $G/H$ is called a Riemannian equigeo-desic if it is a homogeneous geodesic for any $G$-invariant Riemannian metric. The homogeneous manifold $G/H$ is called Riemannian equigeodesic, if for any $x\in…
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…
Let $F$ be a homogeneous $(\alpha_1,\alpha_2)$ metric on the reductive homogeneous manifold $G/H$. Firstly, we characterize the natural reductiveness of $F$ as a local $f$-product between naturally reductive Riemannian metrics. Secondly, we…
