Abstract

The (α,β)-metric is a Finsler metric which is contstructed from a Riemann- ian metric (α,β)and a di(α,β)erential 1-form ¯. In this paper Finsler space with some (α,β); ¯)-metrics like L = ((α,β) + ¯)2=(α,β) and L2 = 2(α,β)¯ becomes weakly Berwald spaces under some geometric and algebraic conditions.
