In this note, we prove that given a submanifold $P$ in a Finsler manifold $(M,F)$, (i) the orthogonal geodesics to $P$ minimize the distance from $P$ at least in some interval, (ii) there exist tubular neighbourhoods around each point of $P$, (iii) the distance from $P$ is smooth in some open neighbourhood of $P$ (but not necessarily in $P$).

An $(alpha,beta)$-metric is defined by a Riemannian metric and $1$-form. In this paper, we investigate the known characterization for $(alpha,beta)$-metrics of isotropic S-curvature. We show that such a characterization should hold in dimension $nge 3$, and for the 2-dimensional case, there is one more class of isotropic S-curvature than the higher dimensional ones. Further, we construct corresponding examples for every two-dimensional class, especially for the class that the norm of $beta$ with respect to $alpha$ is not a constant.
In this paper, we prove that lightlike geodesics of a pseudo-Finsler manifold and its focal points are preserved up to reparametrization by anisotropic conformal changes, using the Chern connection and the anisotropic calculus and the fact that geodesics are critical points of the energy functional and Jacobi fields, the kernel of its index form. This result has applications to the study of Finsler spacetimes.
We show that on every compact Riemannian 2-orbifold there exist infinitely many closed geodesics of positive length.
In this paper, we obtain some sufficient conditions for a 3-dimensional compact trans-Sasakian manifold of type $(alpha ,beta)$ to be homothetic to a Sasakian manifold. A characterization of a 3-dimensional cosymplectic manifold is also obtained.
In this note we prove that, under a weak condition, small deformations of a compact balanced manifold are also balanced. This condition is satisfied on the twistor space over a compact self-dual four manifold.
