Abstract:In Finsler spaces the intervalds=F(xi,dxi) is an arbitrary function of the coordinatesxi and coordinate incrementsdxi withF homogeneous of degree one in thedxi. It is shown that for Riemannian spacesdsR2=gijdxidxi which admit a non trivial covariantly constant tensorHi.(xk) there is an associated Finsler space with the same geodesic structure. The subset of such Finsler spaces withHi.(xk) a vector or second rank decomposable tensor is determined.
