# PROJECTIVELY FLAT FINSLER SPACES WITH CERTAIN (α, β)-METRICS

• Published : 2003.11.01

#### Abstract

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.
