Abstract: Integral formulae for foliated Riemannian manifolds provide obstructions for existence of foliations or compact leaves of them with given geometric properties. This paper continues our recent study and presents new integral formulae and their applications for codimension-one foliated Randers spaces. The goal is a generalization of Reeb's formula (that the total mean curvature of the leaves is zero) and its companion (that twice total second mean curvature of the leaves equals to the total Ricci curvature in the normal direction). We also extend results by Brito, Langevin and Rosenberg (that total mean curvatures of arbitrary order for a codimension-one foliated Riemannian manifold of constant curvature don't depend on a foliation). All of that is done by a comparison of extrinsic and intrinsic curvatures of the two Riemannian structures which arise in a natural way from a given Randers structure.
