Deformations and Hilbert's Fourth Problem

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper we study a class of Finsler metrics defined by a Riemannian metric and an 1-form. We classify those of projectively flat in dimension n≥3n\geq3 by a special class of deformations. The results show that the projective flatness of such kind of Finsler metrics always arises from that of some Riemannian metric.
