Abstract
We sketch an economical framework and a simple index-free cal- culus for direction-dependent objects, based almost exclusively on Berwald derivative. To illustrate the efficiency of these tools, we characterize projec- tively Finslerian sprays, and derive Hamel's PDEs in an analytic version of Hilbert's fourth problem.
