A flag is a sequence of nested subspaces. Flags are ubiquitous in numerical analysis, arising in finite elements, multigrid, spectral, and pseudospectral methods for numerical PDE; they arise in the form of Krylov subspaces in matrix…

The collection of all projective vector fields on a Finsler space $(M, F)$ is a finite-dimensional Lie algebra with respect to the usual Lie bracket, called the projective algebra denoted by $p(M,F)$ and is the Lie algebra of the projective…

Weighted Ricci curvatures with various weights of the S-curvature have played an important role in Finsler geometry, especially in the control of volumes of Finsler manifolds. In this paper, we study general weighted Ricci curvatures, and…

We consider a special class of Finsler metrics --- square metrics which are defined by a Riemannian metric and a 1-form on a manifold. We show that an analogue of the Beltrami Theorem in Riemannian geometry is still true for square metrics…

We survey the geometry of Lagrange and Finsler spaces and discuss the issues related to the definition of curvature of nonholonomic manifolds enabled with nonlinear connection structure. It is proved that any commutative Riemannian geometry…

Finsler geometry is a natural generalization of (pseudo-)Riemannian geometry, where the line element is not the square root of a quadratic form but a more general homogeneous function. Parameterizing this in terms of symmetric tensors…

In this short article, using a left-invariant Randers metric $F$, we define a new left-invariant Randers metric $\tilde{F}$. We show that $F$ is of Berwald (Douglas) type if and only if $\tilde{F}$ is of Berwald (Douglas) type. In the case…

I classify the Finsler structures on the 2-sphere that have constant Finsler-Gauss curvature and whose geodesics are the great circles. Modulo diffeomorphism, there is a 2-parameter family of such Finsler structures, only one of which is…

We prove that in a Finsler manifold with vanishing $\chi$-curvature (in particular with constant flag curvature) some non-Riemannian geometric structures are geodesically invariant and hence they induce a set of non-Riemannian first…
