On the Flag Curvature of Finsler Metrics of Scalar Curvature

TL;DR: In this paper, the flag curvature of a Finsler metric is defined as a scalar function on the slit tangent bundle, and the curvature is determined when certain non-Riemannian quantities such as Cartan torsion and Landsberg curvature are isotropic.

On the Flag Curvature of Finsler Metrics of Scalar Curvature

TL;DR: In this article, the flag curvature of a Finsler metric with isotropic S-curvature is studied and the curvature is partially determined when certain non-Riemannian quantities such as Cartan torsion, Landsberg curvature and S-Curvature vanish.

On an Asymmetrical Metric in the Four-Space of General Relativity

TL;DR: In this article, the simplest possible asymmetrical generalization of Riemannian metric is considered, and the physical consequences by application to space-time are obvious, and may be of interest by leading directly to a description of the electromagnetic field.
