Abstract

The ($\alpha$,$\beta$)-metric is a Finsler metric which is constructed from a Riemannian metric $\alpha$ and a differential 1-from $\beta$;it has been sometimes treated in theoretical physics. The condition for a Finsler space with an ($\alpha$,$\beta$)-metric L($\alpha$,$\beta$) to be projectively flat was given by Matsumoto [11]. The present paper is devoted to studying the condition for a Finsler space with L=$\alpha$\ulcorner$\beta$\ulcorner or L=$\alpha$+$\beta$\ulcorner/$\alpha$ to be projectively flat on the basis of Matsumoto`s results.
