Abstract

In this work, it is proved that if a complete Finsler manifold of positive constant Ricci curvature admits a solution to a certain ODE, then it is homeomorphic to the n-sphere. Next, a geometric meaning is obtained for solutions of this ODE, which is applicable to Einstein–Randers spaces. Moreover, some results on Finsler spaces admitting a special conformal vector field are obtained.
