Abstract

In this paper, We characterize a Finsler manifold admitting a conformal transformation such that the difference of the two Ricci tensors is a constant multiple of the metric. Furthermore, we find some results on Finsler manifolds with constant flag curvature admiting a special conformal transformation.
