摘要
In this paper, we study （α,β）-metrics of scalar flag curvature on a manifold M of dimension n （n 〉 3）. Suppose that an （α,β）-metric F is not a Finsler metric of Randers type, that is, F ≠k1 V√α^2 ＋ k2β^2 ＋ k3β, where k1 〉 0, k2 and k3 are scalar functions on M. We prove that F is of scalar flag curvature and of vanishing S-curvature if metric. In this case, F is a locally Minkowski and only if the flag curvature K = 0 and F is a Berwald metric.
