  • The ($\alpha$,$\beta$)-metric is a Finsler metric which is constructed from a Riemannian metric $\alpha$ and a differential 1-from $\beta$;it has been sometimes treated in theoretical physics. The condition for a Finsler space with an ($\alpha$,$\beta$)-metric L($\alpha$,$\beta$) to be projectively flat was given by Matsumoto [11]. The present paper is devoted to studying the condition for a Finsler space with L=$\alpha$\ulcorner$\beta$\ulcorner or L=$\alpha$+$\beta$\ulcorner/$\alpha$ to be projectively flat on the basis of Matsumoto`s results.

  • The Matsumoto metric is an ($\alpha,\;\bata$)-metric which is an exact formulation of the model of Finsler space. Lately, this metric was expressed as an infinite series form for $$\mid$\beat$\mid$\;<\;$\mid$\alpha$\mid$$ by the first author. He introduced an approximate Matsumoto metric as the ($\alpha,\;\bata$)-metric of finite series form and investigated it in [11]. The purpose of the present paper is devoted to finding the condition for a Finsler space with an approximate Matsumoto metric to be projectively flat.

  • In a Finsler space, we introduce a special $(\alpha,\beta)$-metric L satisfying $L^2(\alpha,\beta) = c_1\alpha^2 + 2c_2\alpha\beta + c_3\beta^2$, which $c_i$ are constants. We investigate the Berwald connection in a Finsler space with this special $\alpha,\beta)$-metric.

  • In this paper, we study a class of Finsler metrics called general (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-metrics, which are defined by a Riemannian metric ${\alpha}$ and a 1-form ${\beta}$. We show that every general (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-metric with isotropic Berwald curvature is either a Berwald metric or a Randers metric. Moreover, a lot of new isotropic Berwald general (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-metrics are constructed explicitly.

  • 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.

  • We deal with a Finsler space $F^n$ with an approximate infinite series $({\alpha},\;{\beta})$-metric $L({\alpha},\;{\beta})$ = ${\beta}{\sum}_{k=0}^{r}(\frac{\alpha}{\beta})^k$ where ${\alpha}<{\beta}$. We introduced a Finsler space $F^n$ with an infinite series $({\alpha},{\beta})$-metric $L({\alpha},\;{\beta})=\frac{\beta^2}{\beta-\alpha}$ and investigated various geometrical properties at [6]. The purpose of the present paper is devoted to finding the condition for a Finsler space $F^n$ with an approximate infinite series $({\alpha},\;{\beta})$-metric above to be a Douglas space.
