In this paper, we study the geometry of the manifolds of geodesics of a Zoll surface of positive Gauss curvature, show how these metrics induce Finsler metrics of constant flag curvature and give some explicit constructions.

AbstractWe give an explicit construction of polynomial (of arbitrary degree) (α, β)-metrics with scalar flag curvature and determine their scalar flag curvature. These Finsler metrics contain all nontrivial projectively flat (α, β)-metrics of constant flag curvature.

AbstractIn this paper, we find equations that characterize locally projectively flat Finsler metrics in the form , where is a Riemannian metric and is a 1-form. Then we completely determine the local structure of those with constant flag curvature.

In this paper, we study a class of Finsler metrics defined by a Riemannian metric and a 1-form. We classify those projectively flat with constant flag curvature.
