The emergence of generalized square metrics in Finsler geometry can be attributed to various classification concerning ({\alpha}, \beta})-metrics. They have excellent geometric properties in Finsler geometry. Within the scope of this…

This paper builds on the theory of generalised functions begun in [1]. The Colombeau theory of generalised scalar fields on manifolds is extended to a nonlinear theory of generalised tensor fields which is diffeomorphism invariant and has…
