Galloway’s compactness theorem on Finsler manifolds
نویسنده
چکیده
The compactness theorem of Galloway is a stronger version of the Bonnet-Myers theorem allowing the Ricci scalar to take also negative values from a set of real numbers which is bounded below. In this paper we allow any negative value for the Ricci scalar, and adding a condition on its average, we find again that the manifold is compact and provide an upper bound of its diameter. Also, with no condition on Ricci scalar itself, but with a condition on its average, we find again the compactness of the manifold. All considerations are done in the category of Finsler manifolds. M.S.C. 2010: 53C60.

On the conformal group of Finsler manifolds
We generalize to the Finsler case, the Lelong-Ferrand-Obatta Theorem about the compactness of conformal groups of compact Riemannian manifolds, except, the standard sphere.
متن کاملRelative volume comparison theorems in Finsler geometry and their applications
We establish some relative volume comparison theorems for extremal volume forms of Finsler manifolds under suitable curvature bounds. As their applications, we obtain some results on curvature and topology of Finsler manifolds. Our results remove the usual assumption on S-curvature that is needed in the literature.
متن کاملA Hodge decomposition theorem on strongly pseudoconvex compact complex Finsler manifolds
In this paper, we prove that the Hodge-Laplace operator on strongly pseudoconvex compact complex Finsler manifolds is a self-adjoint elliptic operator. Then, from the decomposition theorem for self-adjoint elliptic operators, we obtain a Hodge decomposition theorem on strongly pseudoconvex compact complex Finsler manifolds. M.S.C. 2010: 53C56, 32Q99.
متن کاملOn Stretch curvature of Finsler manifolds
In this paper, Finsler metrics with relatively non-negative (resp. non-positive), isotropic and constant stretch curvature are studied. In particular, it is showed that every compact Finsler manifold with relatively non-positive (resp. non-negative) stretch curvature is a Landsberg metric. Also, it is proved that every (α,β)-metric of non-zero constant flag curvature and non-zero relatively i...
