ON FINSLER SPACES WITH A QUATRIC METRIC
Abstract
The so- called cubic L3 = aijk(x)yiyjyk metric on a differential manifold with the local coordinates xi has been dened by M.Matsumoto in the year 1979[6]. In the paper, he has worked outthe necessary and sucient condition (n.a.s.c) for two and threedimensional Finsler space in terms of main scalars in order that the Finsler space is a with cubic metric. On the lines of cubic metric many authors have studied quartic metric as an example of Finsler metric. In the present paper we have work out the n.a.s.c in terms of main scalars of two and three dimensional Finsler space with quartic metric.
