Some geometric correspondences for homothetic navigation

Differential Geometry 2021-06-08 v2

Abstract

In this paper, we provide conceptional explanations for the geodesic and Jacobi field correspondences for homothetic navigation, and then let them guide us to the shortcuts to some well known flag curvature and S-curvature formulas. They also help us directly see the local correspondence between isoparametric functions or isoparametric hypersurfaces, which generalizes the classification works of Q. He and her coworkers for isoparametric hypersurfaces in Randers space forms and Funk spaces.
