Abstract
In this paper, we consider some generalization of maximally movable spaces of Finsler type. Among them, there are locally conic spaces (Riemannian metrics of their tangent spaces are realized on circular cones) and generalized Lagrange spaces with Tamm metrics (their tangent Riemannian spaces admit all rotations). On the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold, we study a special class of almost product metrics, generated Tamm metric. This class contains Sasaki metric and Cheeger–Gromol metric. We determine the position of this class in the Naveira classification of Riemannian almost product metrics.
