Berwald -Kropina Spaces of Arbitrary Signature: Metrizability and Ricci-Flatness
Sjors Heefer
The (pseudo-)Riemann-metrizability and Ricci-flatness of Finsler spaces with -Kropina metric of Berwald type are investigated. We prove that the affine conne…
On the metrizability of -Kropina spaces with closed null 1-form
Sjors Heefer, Christian Pfeifer, Jorn van Voorthuizen +1
We investigate the local metrizability of Finsler spaces with -Kropina metric , where is a closed null 1-form. We show that such a space is of Berwald typ…
On the non metrizability of Berwald Finsler spacetimes
Andrea Fuster, Sjors Heefer, Christian Pfeifer +1
We investigate whether Szabo's metrizability theorem can be extended to Finsler spaces of indefinite signature. For smooth, positive definite Finsler metrics, this important theore…
Identifying Berwald Finsler Geometries
Christian Pfeifer, Sjors Heefer, Andrea Fuster
Berwald geometries are Finsler geometries close to (pseudo)-Riemannian geometries. We establish a simple first order partial differential equation as necessary and sufficient condi…
