Finsler manifold

In mathematics, particularly differential geometry, a Finsler manifold is a differentiable manifold M where a (possibly asymmetric) Minkowski functional F(x, −) is provided on each tangent space TxM, that enables one to define the length of any smooth curve γ : [a, b] → M as Finsler manifolds are more general than Riemannian manifolds since the tangent norms need not be induced by inner products. Every Finsler manifold becomes an intrinsic quasimetric space when the distance between two points is defined as the infimum length of the curves that join them. Élie Cartan named Finsler manifolds after Paul Finsler, who studied this geometry in his dissertation. (Wikipedia).

Martin Kell: Sectional curvature like conditions on metric spaces

In this talk I present two concavity assumptions on the distance. The first one is the non-negative curvature analogue of Busemann’s non-positive curvature condition and resembles a sectional curvature-like condition comparable to the measure contraction property. It holds for certain non-
