Generalized Isotropic Berwald Manifolds

In this paper, we construct a new class of Finsler manifolds called generalized isotropic Berwald manifolds which is an extension of the class of isotropic Berwald manifolds. We prove that every generalized isotropic Berwald manifold is a generalized Douglas-Weyl manifold. On a compact generalized isotropic Berwald manifold, we show that the notions of stretch and Landsberg curvatures are equivalent. Then we prove that on these manifolds, a Finsler metric is R-quadratic if and only if it is a stretch metric with vanishing E -curvature. Finally, we determine the flag curvature of generalized isotropic Berwald manifold with scalar flag curvature.

On Cartan Spaces with m-th Root Metrics

In this paper, we define some non-Riemannian curvature properties for Cartan spaces. We consider Cartan space with the m-th root metric. We prove that every m-th root Cartan space of isotropic Landsberg curvature, or isotropic mean Landsberg curvature, or isotropic mean Berwald curvature reduces to a Landsberg, weakly Landsberg and weakly Berwald space, respectively. Then we show that m-th root Cartan space of almost vanishing H-curvature satisfies H = 0.

Finsler Metrics with Bounded Cartan Torsions

The norm of Cartan torsion plays an important role for studying of immersion theory in Finsler geometry. Indeed, Finsler manifold with unbounded Cartan torsion can not be isometrically imbedded into any Minkowski space. In this paper, we find two subclasses of (?, ?)-metrics which have bounded Cartan torsion. Then, we give two subclasses of (?, ?)-metrics whose bound on the Cartan torsions are independent of the norm of ?.

On Generalized m-th Root Finsler Metrics

In this paper, we characterize locally dually flat generalized m-th root Finsler metrics. Then we find a condition under which a generalized m-th root metric is projectively related to a m-th root metric. Finally, we prove that if a generalized m-th root metric is conformal to a m-th root metric, then both of them reduce to Riemannian metrics.

On Twisted Products Finsler Manifolds

On the product of two Finsler manifolds M1 M2, we consider the twisted metric F which is construct by using Finsler metrics F1 and F2 on the manifolds M1 and M2, respectively. We introduce horizontal and vertical distributions on twisted product Finsler manifold and study Creducible and semi-C-reducible properties of this manifold. Then we obtain the Riemannian curvature and some of non-Riemannian curvatures of the twisted product Finsler manifold such as Berwald curvature, mean Berwald curvature and we find the relations between these objects and their corresponding objects on M1 and M2. Finally, we study locally dually flat twisted product Finsler manifold.

Almost Paracontact Finsler Structures on Vector Bundle

In this paper, we define almost paracontact and normal almost paracontact Finsler structures on a vector bundle and find some conditions for integrability of these structures. We define paracontact metric, para- Sasakian and K-paracontact Finsler structures and study some properties of these structures. For a K-paracontact Finsler structure, we find the vertical and horizontal flag curvatures. Then, we define vertical ?-flag curvature and prove that every locally symmetric para-Sasakian Finsler structure has negative vertical ?-flag curvature. Finally, we define the horizontal and vertical Ricci tensors of a para-Sasakian Finsler structure and study some curvature properties of them.

Inertial Measurements Based Velocity-free Attitude Stabilization

The existing attitude controllers (without angular velocity measurements) involve explicitly the orientation (\textit{e.g.,} the unit-quaternion) in the feedback. Unfortunately, there does not exist any sensor that directly measures the orientation of a rigid body, and hence, the attitude must be reconstructed using a set of inertial vector measurements as well as the angular velocity (which is assumed to be unavailable in velocity-free control schemes). To overcome this \textit{circular reasoning}-like problem, we propose a velocity-free attitude stabilization control scheme relying solely on inertial vector measurements. The originality of this control strategy stems from the fact that the reconstruction of the attitude as well as the angular velocity measurements are not required at all. Moreover, as a byproduct of our design approach, the proposed controller does not lead to the unwinding phenomenon encountered in unit-quaternion based attitude controllers.

Doubly Warped Product Finsler Manifolds with Some Non-Riemannian Curvature Properties

In this paper, we consider doubly warped product (DWP) Finsler manifolds with some non-Riemannian curvature properties. First, we study Berwald and isotropic mean Berwald DWP-Finsler manifolds. Then we prove that every proper Douglas DWP-Finsler manifold is Riemannian. We show that a proper DWP-manifold is Landsbergian if and only it is Berwaldian. In continue, we prove that every relatively isotropic Landsberg DWP-manifold is a Landsberg manifold. We show that a relatively isotropic mean Landsberg warped product manifold is a weakly Landsberg manifold. Finally, we show that there is no any locally dually flat proper DWP-Finsler manifold.

On Doubly Warped Product Finsler Manifolds

In this paper, we introduce horizontal and vertical warped product Finsler manifold. We prove that every C-reducible or proper Berwaldian doubly warped product Finsler manifold is Riemannian. Then, we find the relation between Riemmanian curvatures of doubly warped product Finsler manifold and its components, and consider the cases that this manifold is flat or has scalar flag curvature. We define the doubly warped Sasaki-Matsumoto metric for warped product manifolds and find a condition under which the horizontal and vertical tangent bundles are totally geodesic. Also, we obtain some conditions under which a foliated manifold reduces to a Reinhart manifold. Finally, we study an almost complex structure on the slit tangent bundle of a doubly warped product Finsler manifold.

On Ricci-Tensor of Randers Metrics

In this paper, we study Randers metrics and find a condition on Ricci tensor of these metrics to be Berwaldian. This generalize Shen's Theorem which says: every R-°at complete Randers metric is locally Minkowskian. Then we find a necessary and sufficient condition on Ricci tensor under which a Randers metric of scalar °ag curvature is of zero °ag curvature.

Looking for Kähler- Einstein Structure on Cartan Spaces with Berwald connection

A Cartan manifold is a smooth manifold M whose slit cotangent bundle T*M0 is endowed with a regular Hamiltonian K which is positively homogeneous of degree 2 in momenta. The Hamiltonian K defines a (pseudo)-Riemannian metric gij in the vertical bundle over T*M0 and using it a Sasaki type metric on T*M0 is constructed. A natural almost complex structure is also defined by K on T*M0 in such a way that pairing it with the Sasaki type metric an almost Kähler structure is obtained. In this paper we deform gij to a pseudo-Riemannian metric Gij and we define a corresponding almost complex Kähler structure. We determine the Levi-Civita connection of G and compute all the components of its curvature. Then we prove that if the structure (T*M0, G, J) is Kähler- Einstein, then the Cartan structure given by K reduce to a Riemannian one.

A Kähler Structure on Cartan Spaces

In this paper, we define a new metric on Cartan manifolds and obtain a Kähler structure on their cotangent bundles. We prove that on a Cartan manifold M of negative constant flag curvature, (T* M_0, G, J) has a Käahlerian structure. For Cartan manifolds of positive constant flag curvature, we show that the tube around the zero section has a Käahlerian structure. Finally by computing the Levi-Civita connection and components of curvature related to this metric, we show that there is no non- Riemannian Cartan structure such that (T* M_0, G, J) became a Einstein manifold or locally symmetric manifold.

Shen's Processes on Finslerian Connections

In this paper, we discuss the invariant properties of curvatures effected by the Matsumoto's $C$ or $L$-process. We find equivalent conditions on curvatures by comparing the difference between the corresponding curvatures of closely related connections. As an application, Matsumoto's $L$-process on Randers manifold is studied. Shen connection can not be obtained by using Matsumoto's processes from other well-known connections. This leads us to two new processes which we call Shen's $C$ and $L$-processes. We study the invariant properties of curvatures under the Shen's processes.

A family of Einstein Randers metrics

Using Hawking Taub-NUT metric $g_a$ on $\mathbf{R}^4$, where $a$ is a positive real number and finding a 4-parameter family of Killing vector fields of $(\mathbf{R}^4,g_a)$, we construct a 5-parameter family of Einstein Randers metrics with non-constant flag curvature.

Properties of Generalized Berwald Connections

Recently the present authors introduced a general class of Finsler connections which leads to a smart representation of connection theory in Finsler geometry and yields to a classification of Finsler connections into the three classes. Here the properties of one of these classes namely the Berwald-type connections which contains Berwald and Chern(Rund) connections as a special case is studied. It is proved among the other that the hv-curvature of these connections vanishes if and only if the Finsler space is a Berwald one. Some applications of this connection is discussed.

A classification of some Finsler connections and their applications

Some general Finsler connections are defined. Emphasis is being made on the Cartan tensor and its derivatives. Vanishing of the hv-curvature tensors of these connections characterizes Landsbergian, Berwaldian as well as Riemannian structures. This view point makes it possible to give a smart representation of connection theory in Finsler geometry and yields to a classification of Finsler connections. Some practical applications of these connections are also considered.
