Using the obtained inequality we give some rigidity results under the condition of Ricci curvature. In particular, we show the following result: Assume that an n-dimensional compact Randers manifold (M, F) has constant S-curvature c. Then (M, F) must be Riemannian if its Ricci curvature satisfies that Ric 〈 -(n - 1)c^2.展开更多

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.展开更多

Such metrics have special geometric properties and will play an important role in Finsler geometry. The purpose of the present paper is to find a relation to characterize the projective change between generalized (α, β) - metric ( μ1, μ2 and μ3 ≠ 0 are constants) and Randers metric , where α and are two Riemannian metrics, β and are 1-forms. Further, we study such projective change when generalized (α, β) -metric F has some curvature property.展开更多
