Normal homogeneous Finsler spaces

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: In this paper, we study normal homogeneous Finsler spaces. We first define the notion of a normal homogeneous Finsler space, using the method of isometric submersion of Finsler metrics. Then we study the geometric properties. In particular, we establish a technique to reduce the classification of normal homogeneous Finsler spaces of positive flag curvature to an algebraic problem. The main result of this paper is a classification of positively curved normal homogeneous Finsler spaces. It turns out that a coset space G/H admits a positively curved normal homogeneous Finsler metric if and only if it admits a positively curved normal homogeneous Riemannian metric. We will also give a complete description of the coset spaces admitting non-Riemannian positively curved normal homogeneous Finsler spaces.
