In the present paper, we are to find the conditions that a cubic Finsler space is a Berwald space and a two-dimensional cubic Finsler space is a Landsberg space. It is shown that if a two-dimensional cubic Finsler space is a Landsberg space, then it is a Berwald space.

In the present paper, first we define a Douglas space of the second kind of a Finsler space with an (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-metric. Next we find the conditions that the Finsler space with an (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-metric be a Douglas space of the second kind and the Finsler space with a Matsumoto metric be a Douglas space of the second kind.

In this paper, we investigate the $\mathbb{R}$-complex Hermitian Finsler spaces, emphasizing the differences that separate them from the complex Finsler spaces. The tools used in this study are the Chern-Finsler and Berwald connections. By means of these connections, some classes of the $\mathbb{R}$-complex Hermitian Finsler spaces are defined, (e.g. weakly K$\ddot{a}$hler, K$\ddot{a}$hler, strongly K$\ddot{a}$hler). Here the notions of K$\ddot{a}$hler and strongly K$\ddot{a}$hler do not coincide, unlike the complex Finsler case. Also, some kinds of Berwald notions for such spaces are introduced. A special approach is devoted to obtain the equivalence conditions for an $\mathbb{R}$-complex Hermitian Finsler space to become a weakly Berwald or Berwald. Finally, we obtain the conditions under which an $\mathbb{R}$-complex Hermitian Finsler space with Randers metric is Berwald. We get some clear examples which illustrate the interest for this work.

In the present paper, we treat a Finsler space with a special (${\alpha},\;{\beta}$)-metric $L({\alpha},\;{\beta})\;\;C_1{\alpha}＋C_2{\beta}+{\alpha}^2/{\beta}$ satisfying some conditions. We find a condition that a Finsler space with a special (${\alpha},\;{\beta}$)-metric be a Berwald space. Then it is shown that if a two-dimensional Finsler space with a special (${\alpha},\;{\beta}$)-metric is a Landsberg space, then it is a Berwald space.

In the present paper, we treat an infinite series ($\alpha$, $\beta$)-metric L =$\beta$$^2$/($\beta$-$\alpha$). First, we find the conditions that a Finsler metric F$^{n}$ with the metric above be a Berwald space, a Douglas space, and a projectively flat Finsler space, respectively. Next, we investigate the condition that a two-dimensional Finsler space with the metric above be a Landsbeg space. Then the differential equations of the geodesics are also discussed.

In the Finsler space with an $(\alpha, \beta)$-metric, we can consider the difference tensors of the Finsler connection. The properties of the conformal transformation of these difference tensors are investigated in the present paper. Some conformal invariant tensors are formed in the Finsler space with an $(\alpha, \beta)$-metric related with the difference tensors.

The ($\alpha,\;\beta$)-metric is a Finsler metric which is constructed from a Riemannian metric $\alpha$ and a differential 1-form $\beta$. In this paper, we discuss the projective flatness of Finsler spaces with certain ($\alpha,\;\beta$)-metrics ([5]) in a locally Minkowski space.
