Review text

Section 1 and Section 2 develop the geometry produced by the generalized Lagrange metric \(\overline g_{ij}(x,y)= a(x,y)g_{ij} (x,y)+b(x,y) B_i(x,y) B_j(x,y)\), where \(g_{ij}(x,y)\) is a Finsler metric, \(B_i(x,y)dx^i\) is a Finsler 1-form, and \(a>0\), \(b\geq 0\) are Finsler scalars. Section 3 studies elements of Riemannian geometry on the tangent bundle produced by the Finsler metric \(g_{ij}(x,y)\) and its deformation \(\overline g_{ij}(x,y)\). Section 4 refers to particular choices of \(a,b,B_i, \overline g_{ij}\), obtaining explicit formulas. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0931.00037].
