On projective invariants of the complex Finsler spaces

In this paper we extend the results on projective changes of complex Finsler metrics obtained in Aldea and Munteanu (2012) [3], by the study of projective curvature invariants of a complex Finsler space. By means of these invariants, the notion of complex Douglas space is then defined. A special approach is devoted to the obtaining of equivalence conditions for a complex Finsler space to be a Douglas one. It is shown that any weakly Kahler Douglas space is a complex Berwald space. A projective curvature invariant of Weyl type characterizes complex Berwald spaces. These must be either purely Hermitian of constant holomorphic curvature, or non-purely Hermitian of vanishing holomorphic curvature. Locally projectively flat complex Finsler metrics are also studied. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
