We explore the relationship between contact forms on $\mathbb S^3$ defined by Finsler metrics on $\mathbb S^2$ and the theory developed by H. Hofer, K. Wysocki and E. Zehnder in \cite{HWZ,HWZ1}. We show that a Finsler metric on $\mathbb…

Let $M=S^n/ \Gamma$ and $h$ be a nontrivial element of finite order $p$ in $\pi_1(M)$, where the integer $n\geq2$, $\Gamma$ is a finite group which acts freely and isometrically on the $n$-sphere and therefore $M$ is diffeomorphic to a…

We prove the existence of two Alexandrov embedded closed magnetic geodesics on any two dimensional sphere with nonnegative Gauss curvature.

We proof that on a surface of negative Euler characteristic, two real-analytic Finsler metrics have the same unparametrized oriented geodesics, if and only if they differ by a scaling constant and addition of a closed 1-form.

In the recent paper \cite{LoD1}, we classified closed geodesics on Finsler manifolds into rational and irrational two families, and gave a complete understanding on the index growth properties of iterates of rational closed geodesics. This…

We show that for a generic Riemannian or reversible Finsler metric on a compact differentiable manifold $M$ of dimension at least three all closed geodesics are simple and do not intersect each other. Using results by Contreras~\cite{C2010}…

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 the existence of multiple closed geodesics on non-compact cylindrica manifolds.

We give a lower bound for the length of a non-trivial geodesic loop on a simply-connected and compact manifold of even dimension with a non-reversible Finsler metric of positive flag curvature. Harris and Paternain use this estimate in…

We consider 2-step free-Carnot groups equipped with sub-Finsler distances. We prove that the metric spheres are codimension-one rectifiable from the Euclidean viewpoint. The result is obtained by studying how the Lipschitz constant for the…

We prove that a riemannian metric on the 2-sphere or the projective plane can be C2-approximated by a smooth metric whose geodesic flow has an elliptic closed geodesic.

A Riemannian metric is of constant curvature if and only if it is locally projectively flat. There are infinitely many locally projectively flat Finsler metrics of constant curvature, that are special solutions to the Hilbert's Fourth…

In this paper, we generalize the classification of geodesic orbit spheres from Riemannian geometry to Finsler geometry. Then we further prove if a geodesic orbit Finsler sphere has constant flag curvature, it must be Randers. It provides an…

The following Theorem is proved: Let M be an n-dimensional (n>2) submanifold of a Riemannian manifold N. Suppose that through each point p of M there exist two (n-1)-dimensional extrinsic spheres of N, which are contained in M in a…

We determine all Finsler metrics of Randers type for which the Riemannian part is a scalar multiple of the Euclidean metric, on an open subset of the Euclidean plane, whose geodesics are circles. We show that the Riemannian part must be of…

We study the asymptotics of the number N(t) of geometrically distinct closed geodesics of a Riemannian or Finsler metric on a connected sum of two compact manifolds of dimension at least three with non-trivial fundamental groups and apply…

Invariant geodesic orbit Finsler $(\alpha,\beta)$ metrics $F$ which arise from Riemannian geodesic orbit metrics $\alpha$ on spheres are determined. The relation of Riemannian geodesic graphs with Finslerian geodesic graphs proved in a…

Motivated in part by the bi-gravity approach to massive gravity, we introduce and study the multimetric Finsler geometry. For the case of an arbitrary number of dimensions, we study some general properties of the geometry in terms of its…

We obtain a result about the existence of only a finite number of geodesics between two fixed non-conjugate points in a Finsler manifold endowed with a convex function. We apply it to Randers and Zermelo metrics. As a by-product, we also…

We study the necessary and sufficient conditions for a Finsler surface with $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics to be with reversible geodesics.
