In this note, we show that the examples of non Berwaldian Landsberg surfaces with vanishing flag curvature, obtained in \cite{Zhou}, are in fact Berwaldian. Consequently, Bryant's claim is still unverified.

In this note, we prove that given a submanifold $P$ in a Finsler manifold $(M,F)$, (i) the orthogonal geodesics to $P$ minimize the distance from $P$ at least in some interval, (ii) there exist tubular neighbourhoods around each point of $P$, (iii) the distance from $P$ is smooth in some open neighbourhood of $P$ (but not necessarily in $P$).
We solve the following problem for $n=2:$ Is any n-dimensional Finsler manifold $(M, F)$ with a function $f$ which is nonconstant and smooth on $M$ satisfying $ \dfrac{\partial g^{ij}}{\partial y^k}\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x^i}=0, $ a Riemannian manifold? The problem for $n>2$ remains open.
In this paper, we prove that all spherically symmetric Landsberg surfaces are Berwaldian. We modify the classification of spherically symmetric Finsler metrics, done by the author in [S. G. Elgendi, On the classification of Landsberg spherically symmetric Finsler metrics, Int. J. Geom. Methods Mod. Phys. 18 (2021)], of Berwald type of dimension $n\geq 3$. Precisely, we show that all Berwald spherically symmetric metrics of dimension $n\geq 3$ are Riemannian or given by a certain formula. As a simple class of Berwaldian metrics, we prove that all spherically symmetric metrics in which the funct…
An $(α,β)$-metric is defined by a Riemannian metric and $1$-form. In this paper, we investigate the known characterization for $(α,β)$-metrics of isotropic S-curvature. We show that such a characterization should hold in dimension $n\ge 3$, and for the 2-dimensional case, there is one more class of isotropic S-curvature than the higher dimensional ones. Further, we construct corresponding examples for every two-dimensional class, especially for the class that the norm of $β$ with respect to $α$ is not a constant.
In this short note, we verify R. Bryant's claim: there does exist the singular Landsberg Finsler surface with a vanishing flag curvature which is not Berwaldian.
In this short note, we prove that if $F$ is a weak upper semicontinuous admissible Finsler structure on a domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$, then the intrinsic distance and differential structures coincide.
In this note we discuss a few properties of transnormal Finsler functions, i.e., the natural generalization of distance functions and isoparametric Finsler functions. In particular, we prove that critical level sets of an analytic transnormal function are submanifolds, and the partition of $M$ into level sets is a Finsler partition, when the function is defined on a compact analytic manifold $M$.

In his book "Differential Geometry of Spray and Finsler spaces", page 177, Zhongmin Shen asks "wether or not there always exist non-trivial Funk functions on a spray space". In this note, we will prove that the answer is negative for the geodesic spray of a finslerian function of non-vanishing scalar flag curvature.
In this note, we give the correct statements of [2,Proposition 3.3 and Theorem 3.4] and a formula of the Chern curvature in terms of the curvature tensor $R^V$ of the affine connection $\nabla^V$ and the Chern tensor $P$.

In this paper, we study the distributions and the affine distributions of the quantum mechanical system. Also, we discuss the controllability of the quantum mechanical system with the related question concerning the minimum time needed to steer a quantum system from a unitary evolution $U(0)=I$ of the unitary propagator to a desired unitary propagator $U_f$. Furthermore, the paper introduces a description of a $\mathfrak{k} \oplus \mathfrak{p}$ sub-Finsler manifold with its geodesics, which equivalents to the problem of driving the quantum mechanical system from an arbitrary initial state $U(0…
In this paper, we first generalize the common index jump theorem for symplectic matrix paths proved in 2002 by Long and Zhu in [LoZ], and get an enhanced version of it. As its applications, we further prove that for a compact simply-connected manifold $(M,F)$ with a bumpy, irreversible Finsler metric $F$ and $H^*(M;{\bf Q})\cong T_{d,n+1}(x)$ for some even integer $d\ge 2$ and integer $n\ge 1$, there exist at least $\frac{dn(n+1)}{2}$ distinct non-hyperbolic closed geodesics with odd Morse indices, provided the number of distinct prime closed geodesics is finite and every prime closed geodesic…
In this Note, we prove that every m-th root Finsler metric with isotropic Landsberg curvature reduces to a Landsberg metric. Then, we show that every m-th root metric with almost vanishing H-curvature has vanishing H-curvature.
In this note it is shown that Berwald spaces admitting the same norm-preserving torsion-free affine connection have the same (weighted) Ricci curvatures. Combing this with Szabó's Berwald metrization theorem one can apply the Cheeger-Gromoll splitting theorem in order to get a full structure theorem for Berwald spaces of non-negative Ricci curvature. Furthermore, if none of the factor is a symmetric space one obtains an explicit expression of Finsler norm of the resulting product. By the general structure theorem one can apply the soul theorem to the factor in case of non-negative flag curvatu…
In this note we introduce a natural Finsler structure on convex surfaces, referred to as the projective Finsler structure, which is dual in a sense to the obvious inclusion of a convex surface in a normed space. It has an associated projective girth, which is similar to the notion of girth defined by Schäffer. We prove the analogs of Schäffer's dual girth conjecture (proved by Álvarez-Paiva) and the Holmes-Thompson dual volumes theorem in the projective setting. We then show that the projective Finsler structure admits a natural extension to higher Grassmannians, and prove the corresponding th…
