We consider metrics related to each other by functionals of a scalar field $\varphi(x)$ and it's gradient $\nabla \varphi(x)$, and give transformations of some key geometric quantities associated with such metrics. Our analysis provides…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of Einstein-reversibility for Finsler met- rics. We study a class of p-power Finsler metrics determined by a Riemann metric and 1-form which are of Einstein-reversibility. It shows that such a class of…

We study new classes of metric transformations in the context of scalar-tensor theories, which involve both higher derivatives of the scalar field and derivatives of the metric itself. In general, such transformations are not invertible as…

The existence of two geometrically distinct closed geodesics on an $n$-dimensional sphere $S^n$ with a non-reversible and bumpy Finsler metric was shown independently by Duan--Long [7] and the author [27]. We simplify the proof of this…
