Finsler geometry is a branch of differential geometry that generalizes the concepts of Riemannian geometry. While Riemannian geometry is based on the notion of a smoothly varying inner product that defines lengths and angles on tangent spaces of a manifold, Finsler geometry allows for a more general structure by using a norm on the tangent spaces that need not be derived from an inner product.
