Spherically symmetric finsler metrics with constant ricci and flag curvature

Abstract

Spherically symmetric metrics form a rich and important class of metrics. Many well-known Finsler metrics of constant flag curvature can be locally expressed as a spherically symmetric metric on Rn. In this paper, we study spherically symmetric metrics with constant Ricci curvature (tensor) and constant flag curvature. © 2015 University of Debrecen Institute of Mathematics. All rights reserved.
