AbstractWe prove the existence of an invariant vector field on a homogeneous Finsler space with exponential metric, and we derive an explicit formula for the S-curvature of a homogeneous Finsler space with exponential metric. Using this formula, we obtain a formula for the mean Berwald curvature of such a homogeneous Finsler space.

The study of curvature properties of homogeneous Finsler spaces with [Formula: see text]-metrics is one of the central problems in Riemann–Finsler geometry. In this paper, the existence of invariant vector fields on a homogeneous Finsler space with square metric is proved. Further, an explicit formula for [Formula: see text]-curvature of a homogeneous Finsler space with square metric is established. Finally, using the formula of [Formula: see text]-curvature, the mean Berwald curvature of aforesaid [Formula: see text]-metric is calculated.

The study of curvature properties of homogeneous Finsler spaces with $(\alpha, \beta)$-metrics is one of the central problems in Riemann-Finsler geometry. In the present paper, the existence of invariant vector fields on a homogeneous Finsler space with Randers changed square metric has been proved. Further, an explicit formula for $S$-curvature of Randers changed square metric has been established. Finally, using the formula of $S$-curvature, the mean Berwald curvature of afore said $(\alpha, \beta)$-metric has been calculated.

AbstractIn this paper, we first deduce a formula of S-curvature of homogeneous Finsler spaces in terms of Killing vector fields. Then we prove that a homogeneous Finsler space has isotropic S-curvature if and only if it has vanishing S-curvature. In the special case that the homogeneous Finsler space is a Randers space, we give an explicit formula which coincides with the previous formula obtained by the second author using other methods.

We consider a Finsler space equipped with a Generalized Conformalβ-change of metric and study the Killing vector fields that correspond between the original Finsler space and the Finsler space equipped with Generalized Conformalβ-change of metric. We obtain necessary and sufficient condition for a vector field Killing in the original Finsler space to be Killing in the Finsler space equipped with Generalized Conformalβ-change of metric.

Let G be a compact Lie group and A(G) its Burnside Ring. For a compact smooth n-dimensional G-manifold X equipped with a generic G-invariant vector field v, we prove an equivariant analog of the Morse formula [Formula: see text] which takes its values in A(G). Here Ind G(v) denotes the equivariant index of the field v, [Formula: see text] the v-induced Morse stratification (see [10]) of the boundary ∂X, and [Formula: see text] the class of the (n - k)-manifold [Formula: see text] in A(G). We examine some applications of this formula to the equivariant real algebraic fields v in compact domains X ⊂ ℝn defined via a generic polynomial inequality. Next, we link the above formula with the equivariant degrees of certain Gauss maps. This link is an equivariant generalization of Gottlieb's formulas ([3, 4]).

We construct the space of vector fields on a generic quantum group. Its elements are products of elements of the quantum group itself with left-invariant vector fields. We study the duality between vector fields and one-forms and generalize the construction to tensor fields. A Lie derivative along any (also non-left-invariant) vector field is proposed and a puzzling ambiguity in its definition discussed. These results hold for a generic Hopf algebra.
