On the projective Randers metrics
[Sur les métriques de Randers projectives]
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Volume 350 (2012) no. 5-6, pp. 281-283.

On démontre quʼune métrique de Randers F=α+β sur une variété de dimension n3 est projective si et seulement si lʼalgèbre de Lie des champs de vecteurs projectifs p(M,F) est (localement) de dimension n(n+2). Ceci peut être considéré comme un analogue du résultat correspondant en géométrie riemannienne.

It is proved that a Randers metric F=α+β on a manifold of dimension n3 is projective if and only if the Lie algebra of projective vector fields p(M,F) has (locally) dimension n(n+2). This can be regarded as an analogue of the corresponding result in Riemannian geometry.
