Some Curvature Properties of Finsler Warped Product Metrics

Abstract

The class of warped product metrics can often be interpreted as key space models for the general theory of relativity and theory of space-time. In this paper, we first obtain the PDE characterization of Finsler warped product metrics with a vanishing Riemannian curvature. Moreover, we obtain equivalent conditions for locally Minkowski Finsler warped product spaces. Finally, we explicitly construct two types of non-Riemannian examples.
