On Flag Curvature and Homogeneous Geodesics of Left Invariant Randers Metrics on the Semi-Direct Product a ⊕p r
Journal of Lie theory, Tome 29 (2019) no. 3, pp. 619-627
We study flag curvature and homogeneous geodesics of left invariant Randers metrics on the Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{a}\oplus_{\mathfrak{p}}\mathfrak{r}$, where $\mathfrak{a}$ and $\mathfrak{r}$ are abelian Lie algebra of dimension $n$ and $1$, respectively. We give their flag curvature formulas explicitly. We show that there is an $(n+1)-$dimensional Lie group with left invariant Randers metric which admits exactly one homogeneous geodesic.
