In this note we discuss a few properties of transnormal Finsler functions, i.e., the natural generalization of distance functions and isoparametric Finsler functions. In particular, we prove that critical level sets of an analytic…

In this paper, we prove that transnormal functions are isoparametric functions on Finsler space forms (N(c), F) under certain conditions, which generalize Theorem B given by Q.M. Wang in Riemannian case. Next, we discuss the relationship…

In this article, we investigate the focal locus of closed (not necessarily compact) submanifolds in a forward complete Finsler manifold. The main goal is to show that the associated normal exponential map is \emph{regular} in the sense of…

It is known that the $L^{2}$-norms of a harmonic function over spheres satisfies some convexity inequality strongly linked to the Almgren's frequency function. We examine the $L^{2}$-norms of harmonic functions over a wide class of evolving…

The first part of the paper is to improve the fundamental theory of isoparametric functions on general Riemannian manifolds. Next we focus our attention on exotic spheres, especially on "exotic" 4-spheres (if exist) and the Gromoll-Meyer…

A relevant property of equifocal submanifolds is that their parallel sets are still immersed submanifolds, which makes them a natural generalization of the so-called isoparametric submanifolds. In this paper, we prove that the regular…
