Abstract

General ( ${\alpha},\;{\beta}$ )-metrics form a rich and important class of Finsler metrics. In this paper, we obtain a differential equation which characterizes a general ( ${\alpha},\;{\beta}$ )-metric with isotropic E-curvature, under a certain condition. We also solve the equation in a particular case.

Keywords

Finsler metric; general ( ${\alpha},\{\beta}$ )-metric; isotropic E-curvature;
