Abstract

Using a navigation process with the datum (F,V), in which F is a Finsler metric and the smooth tangent vector field V satisfies F(-V(x))>1 everywhere, a Lorentz Finsler metric F can be induced. Isoparametric functions and isoparametric hypersurfaces with or without involving a smooth measure can be defined for F. When the vector field V in the navigation datum is homothetic, we prove the local correspondences between isoparametric functions and isoparametric hypersurfaces before and after this navigation process. Using these correspondences, we provide some examples of isoparametric functions and isoparametric hypersurfaces on a Funk space of Lorentz Randers type.
