Abstract

In this paper, we give an equivalent characterization of conformal vector fields on a Finsler manifold [Formula: see text], whose metric [Formula: see text] is defined by a Riemannian metric [Formula: see text] and a 1-form [Formula: see text]. This characterization contains all related results in [Z. Shen and Q. Xia, On conformal vector fields on Randers manifolds, Sci. China Math. 55(9) (2012) 1869–1882; Z. Shen and M. Yuan, Conformal vector fields on some Finsler manifolds, Sci. China Math. 59(1) (2016) 107–114; X. Cheng, Y. Li and T. Li, The conformal vector fields on Kropina manifolds, Diff. Geom. Appl. 56 (2018) 344–354] as special cases. Further, we determine conformal fields on some Finsler manifolds [Formula: see text] when [Formula: see text] is of constant sectional curvature and [Formula: see text] is a conformal 1-form with respect to [Formula: see text].
