Item On a class of weakly weighted Einstein metrics(World Scientific, 2022-09) Shen, Zhongmin; Zhao, Runzhong; Mathematical Sciences, School of ScienceThe notion of general weighted Ricci curvatures appears naturally in many problems. The N-Ricci curvature and the projective Ricci curvature are just two special ones with totally different geometric meanings. In this paper, we study general weighted Ricci curvatures. We find that Randers metrics of certain isotropic weighted Ricci curvature must have isotropic S-curvature. Then we classify them via their navigation expressions. We also find equations that characterize Randers metrics of almost isotropic weighted Ricci curvature.Item Weighted Curvatures in Finsler Geometry(2023-08) Zhao, Runzhong; Shen, Zhongmin; Buse, Olguta; Ramras, Daniel; Roeder, RolandThe curvatures in Finsler geometry can be defined in similar ways as in Riemannian geometry. However, since there are fewer restrictions on the metrics, many geometric quantities arise in Finsler geometry which vanish in the Riemannian case. These quantities are generally known as non-Riemannian quantities and interact with the curvatures in controlling the global geometrical and topological properties of Finsler manifolds. In the present work, we study general weighted Ricci curvatures which combine the Ricci curvature and the S-curvature, and define a weighted flag curvature which combines the flag curvature and the T -curvature. We characterize Randers metrics of almost isotropic weighted Ricci curvatures and show the general weighted Ricci curvatures can be divided into three types. On the other hand, we show that a proper open forward complete Finsler manifold with positive weighted flag curvature is necessarily diffeomorphic to the Euclidean space, generalizing the Gromoll-Meyer theorem in Riemannian geometry.
