Abstract
Finsler spaces with generalized metric are defined as C∞ — manifolds, endowed with a Finslerian connection and a Finslerian tensor field of type (O,2). For this field, both the symmetric and the antisymmetric parts are non-degenerate, and the covariant h- and v-derivations vanish.
For these spaces the “Eisenhart problem” is solved, i.e. necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence, as well as the most general form of such a connection are determined.
