Randers spaces and C-reducibility

Authors: Mike Crampin

Abstract:

I give a simple direct proof of the fact that a Minkowski norm is of Randers type if and only if it is C-reducible, and discuss the conditions for a Randers space to be Berwald and to be Landsberg in the light of it.

Keywords: Finsler spaces: Randers, C-reducible, Berwald and Landsberg spaces
