Description for Homogeneous Finsler Spaces
Hardback. Emphasizes the relationship between Lie groups and Finsler geometry, and shows the validity in using Lie theory for the study of Finsler geometry problems. This title contains interesting results such as a Finslerian version of the Myers-Steenrod Theorem, the existence theorem for invariant non-Riemannian Finsler metrics on coset spaces, and more. Series: Springer Monographs in Mathematics. Num Pages: 256 pages, 5 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PBMP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 15. Weight in Grams: 549.
Homogeneous Finsler Spaces is the first book to emphasize the relationship between Lie groups and Finsler geometry, and the first to show the validity in using Lie theory for the study of Finsler geometry problems. This book contains a series of new results obtained by the author and collaborators during the last decade. The topic of Finsler geometry has developed rapidly in recent years. One of the main reasons for its surge in development is its use in many scientific fields, such as general relativity, mathematical biology, and phycology (study of algae). This monograph introduces the most recent developments ... Read more

Reviews for Homogeneous Finsler Spaces
From the reviews: “The main purpose of this book is to show how ideas from Lie theory have spread to Finsler geometry. This book is the first one in the field of homogeneous Finsler spaces. … Finsler geometry has been developing rapidly, but this book may give a new spirit to Finsler geometry from the view of Lie theory, ...
