    SOME REMARKS ON FINSLER MANIFOLDS WITH CONSTANT FLAG CURVATURE ROBERT L. BRYANT This article is dedicated to Shiing-Shen Chern, whose beautiful works on Finsler geometry have inspired so much progress in the subject. Abstract. This article is an exposition of four loosely related remarks on the geometry of Finsler manifolds with constant positive flag curvature. The first remark is that there is a canonical K¨ahler structure on the space of geodesics of such a manifold. The second remark is that there is a natural way to construct a (not neces- sarily complete) Finsler n-manifold of constant positive flag curvature out of a hypersurface in suitably general position in CPn. The third remark is that there is a description of the Finsler metrics of constant curvature on S2 in terms of a Riemannian metric and 1-form on the space of its geodesics. In particular, this allows one to use any (Riemannian) Zoll metric of positive Gauss curvature on S2 to construct a global Finsler metric of constant positive curvature on S2. The fourth remark concerns the generality of the space of (local) Finsler metrics of constant positive flag curvature in dimension n+1 > 2. It is shown that such metrics depend on n(n+1) arbitrary functions of n+1 variables and that such metrics naturally correspond to certain torsion-free S1· GL(n, R)- structures on 2n-manifolds. As a by-product, it is found that these groups do occur as the holonomy of torsion-free affine connections in dimension 2n, a hitherto unsuspected phenomenon. Contents 1.

  • Annual Report 1996–1997
    Department of Mathematics Cornell University Annual Report 1996Ð97 Year in Review: Mathematics Instruction and Research Dedication Wolfgang H. J. Fuchs This annual report is dedicated to the memory of Wolfgang H. J. Fuchs, professor emeritus of mathematics at Cornell University, who died February 24, 1997, at his home. Born on May 19, 1915, in Munich, Germany, Wolfgang moved to England in 1933 and enrolled at Cambridge University, where he received his B.A. in 1936 and his Ph.D. in 1941. He held various teaching positions in Great Britain between 1938 and 1950. During the 1948Ð49 academic year, he held a visiting position in the Mathematics Department at Cornell University. He returned to the Ithaca community in 1950 as a permanent member of the department, where he continued to work vigorously even after his ofÞcial retirement in 1985. He was chairman of the Mathematics Department from 1969 to 1973. His academic honors include a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Fulbright-Hays Research Fellowship, and a Humboldt Senior Scientist award. Wolfgang was a renowned mathematician who specialized in the classical theory of functions of one complex variable, especially Nevanlinna theory and approximation theory. His fundamental discoveries in Nevanlinna theory, many of them the product of an extended collaboration with Albert Edrei, reshaped the theory and have profoundly inßuenced two generations of mathematicians. His colleagues will remember him both for his mathematical achievements and for his remarkable good humor and generosity of spirit. He is survived by his wife, Dorothee Fuchs, his children Ñ Annie (Harley) Campbell, John Fuchs and Claudia (Lewis McClellen) Fuchs Ñ and by his grandchildren: Storn and Cody Cook, and Lorenzo and Natalia Fuchs McClellen.
