Singular Finsler metrics, such as Kropina metrics and m-Kropina metrics, have a lot of applications in the real world. In this paper, we classify a class of singular (α, β)-metrics which are locally projectively flat with constant flag curvature in dimension n = 2 and n ≥ 3 respectively. Further, we determine the local structure of m-Kropina metrics and particularly Kropina metrics which are projectively flat with constant flag curvature and prove that such metrics must be locally Minkowskian but are not necessarily flat-parallel.

AbstractWe study an important class of Finsler metrics, namely, Randers metrics. We classify Randers metrics of scalar flag curvature whose S-curvatures are isotropic. This class of Randers metrics contains all projectively flat Randers metrics with isotropic S-curvature and Randers metrics of constant flag curvature.

The-metric is an important class of Finsler metrics including Randers metric as the simplest class, and many people research the Randers metrics. In this paper, we study a new class of Finsler metrics in the form ,Whereis a Riemannian metric, is a 1-form. Bengling Li had introduced the projective flat of the-Metric F. We find another method which is about flag curvature to prove the projective flat conditions of this kind of-metric.

In this paper, we prove a structure theorem for projectively flat Finsler metrics of negative constant flag curvature. We show that for such a Finsler metric if the orthogonal group acts as isometries, then the Finsler metric is a slight generalization of Chern–Shen's construction Riemann–Finsler geometry, Nankai Tracts in Mathematics, Vol. 6 (World Scientific Publishing, Hackensack, NJ, 2005), x+192 pp.

AbstractIn this paper, we study locally projectively flat Finsler metrics of constant flag curvature. We find equations that characterize these metrics by warped product. Using the obtained equations, we manufacture new locally projectively flat Finsler warped product metrics of vanishing flag curvature. These metrics contain the metric introduced by Berwald and the spherically symmetric metric given by Mo-Zhu.
