On Landsberg general $(\alpha ,\beta )$-metrics with a conformal 1-form

Abstract

In this paper, we study almost regular Landsberg general $(\alpha ,\beta )$-metrics in Finsler geometry. The corresponding equivalent equations are given. By solving the equations, we give the classification of Landsberg general $(\alpha ,\beta )$-metrics under the conditon that $\beta$ is closed and conformal to $\alpha$. Under this condition, we prove that regular Landsberg general $(\alpha ,\beta )$-metrics must be Berwaldian when the dimension is greater than two. For the almost regular case, the classification also is given and some new non-Berwaldian Landsberg metrics are found.
