Flag manifolds are in general not symmetric spaces. But they are provided with a structure of $\mathbb{Z}_2^k$-symmetric space. We describe the Riemannian metrics adapted to this structure and some properties of reducibility. We detail for…

In this paper, we prove two rigidity results for non-positively curved homogeneous Finsler metrics. Our first main result yields an extension of Hu-Deng's well-known result proven for the Randers metrics. Indeed, we prove that every…

If the flag curvature of a Finsler manifold reduces to sectional curvature, then locally either the Finsler metric is Riemannian, or the flag curvature is isotropic.

The flag curvature is a natural extension of the sectional curvature in Riemannian geometry, and the S-curvature is a non-Riemannian quantity which vanishes for Riemannian metrics. There are (incomplete) non-Riemannian Finsler metrics on an…

In this paper, we investigate the converse of the Tan-Xu theorem, which states that the naturally reductive property of a Riemannian metric is inherited by a naturally reductive $(\alpha_1,\alpha_2)$-metric, and we show that, under certain…

In this paper, we introduce a new type of Finsler metrics, called $(\alpha_1,\alpha_2)$-metrics. We define the notion of the good datum of a homogeneous $(\alpha_1,\alpha_2)$-metric and use that to study the geometric properties. In…
