Abstract

We determine a 2-codimensional para-CR structure on the slit tangent bundle T 0 M of a Finsler manifold (M, F) by imposing a condition regarding the almost paracomplex structure P associated to F when restricted to the structural distribution of a framed para-f-structure. This condition is satisfied when (M, F) is of scalar flag curvature (particularly constant) or if the Riemannian manifold (M, g) is of constant curvature.
