dc.description.abstract | Every Riemannian metric or Finsler metric on a manifold induces a spray via its geodesics. In this paper, we discuss several expressions for the χ-curvature of a spray. We show that the sprays obtained by a projective deformation using the S-curvature always have vanishing χ-curvature. Then we establish the Beltrami Theorem for sprays with χ=0. | en_US |
