On conformally doubly warped product Finsler manifold (Q2297512)

In the investigated paper, the authors study a general product Finsler manifold and call it a conformally doubly deformed product Finsler manifold in the following way. Let \((M_1, F_1)\) and \((M_2, F_2)\) be two Finsler manifolds and \(f_1 : M_1 \mapsto \mathbb{R}^{+} \) , \(f_2 : M_2 \mapsto \mathbb{R}^+\) be two smooth functions on \(M_1 \) and \(M_2\), respectively. Consider the product manifold \(M := M_1 \times M_2\) endowed with the metric \(F : TM^o_1 \times TM^o_2 \mapsto \mathbb{R} \) where \(TM^o_1 = TM_1 - 0 \), \(TM^o_2 = TM_2 - 0 \). A conformally doubly warped product Finsler manifold is defined by \[F(v_1, v_2) = e^{\sigma(\pi_1(v_1),\pi_2(v_2))}\sqrt{f _2^2 (\pi_2(v_2))F^2_1 \pi_1(v_1) + f ^2_1 \pi_1(v_1)F^2_2 \pi_2(v_2)},\] where, \(\pi_1 : M_1 \times M_2 \mapsto M_1, \pi_2 : M_1 \times M_2 \mapsto M_2 \) are the natural projection maps and \(\sigma : M_1 \times M_2 \mapsto \mathbb{R}^+\) is a positively smooth function on \(M_1 \times M_2\). In the paper under review the authors have computed the coefficients of Barthel, Cartan, Berwald, Hashigushi and Chern (Rund) connections and some curvature tensors on a conformally doubly warped product Finsler manifolds. Some calculations on special Finsler spaces are performed.
