A Sampler of Riemann-Finsler Geometry

Finsler Geometry Generalizes Riemannian Geometry In The Same Sense That Banach Spaces Generalize Hilbert Spaces. This Book Presents An Expository Account Of Seven Important Topics In Riemann-Finsler Geometry Ones Which Have Recently Undergone Significant Development But Have Not Had A Detailed Pedagogical Treatment Elsewhere. Each Article Will Open The Door To An Active Area Of Research And Is Suitable For A Special Topics Course In Graduate-Level Differential Geometry. The Contributors Consider Issues Related To Volume Geodesics Curvature Complex Differential Geometry And Parametrized Jet Bundles And Include A Variety Of Instructive Examples.
