Abstract

In this paper, we find the necessary and sufficient conditions for a Finsler space with the metric L=α+β+β^2/α+β^3/α^2 to be a Douglas space and also to be a Berwald space, where α is a Riemannian metric and β is a differential one-form. Further, we study the conformal change of Douglas space with the above mentioned second approximate matsumato metric.
