Modern gauge theories of high energy physics, investigations in classical and quantum gravity and recent unifications of superstring theories (the so–called M– F– and S– theories) are characterized by a large application of geometric and topological methods. There are elaborated a number of Kaluza–Klein models of space–time and proposed different variants of compactification of higher dimension...

In this paper, by the Gauss equation of the induced Chern connection for Finsler submanifolds, we prove that if M is an umbilical hypersurface of a Minkowski space (V , F ), then either M is a Riemannian space form or a locally Minkowski space. AMS subject classifications: 53C60, 53C40

Kinematics in Finsler space is used to study the propagation of ultra high energy cosmic rays particles through the cosmic microwave background radiation. We find that the GZK threshold is lifted dramatically in Randers-Finsler space. A tiny deformation of spacetime from Minkowskian to Finslerian allows more ultra-high energy cosmic rays particles arrive at the earth. It is suggested that the l...

In this paper, we obtain a Nakano type inequality for vertical valued ∂h harmonic mixed forms with compact support on the total space of the holomorphic tangent bundle of a complex Finsler manifold. AMS subject classifications: 53B40, 32L20

This paper introduces a novel steepest descent flow in Banach spaces. This extends previous works on generalized gradient descent, notably the work of Charpiat et al. [12], to the setting of Finsler metrics. Such a generalized gradient allows one to take into account a prior on deformations (e.g., piecewise rigid) in order to favor some specific evolutions. We define a Finsler gradient descent ...

From a rigorous Finsler geometric perspective, we re-examine Holland’s Randers space theory of motion of an electron in flat Minkowski spacetime permeated with an electromagnetic field. Holland’s theory was motivated by analogy with plastic deformation and dislocation in Bravais crystals, through work of D. Bohm on Quantum Mechanics. We develop the anholonomic geometry of a Randers space using ...

Kinematic and geometrical aspects of the connection between energy and inertial mass are considered. Transformations of coordinate and time are obtained in a two-dimensional flat space. For this case the Euclidean, pseudo-Euclidean and Galilean kinematics are considered. A new interval in a flat fourdimensional anisotropic Finsler space is found. Under certain assumptions the known results foll...
