摘要

We give a new definition of a Laplace operator for Finsler metric as an average with regard to an angle measure of the second directional derivatives. This definition uses a dynamical approach due to Foulon that does not require the use of connections or local coordinates. We give explicit representations and computations of spectral data for this operator in the case of Katok-Ziller metrics on the sphere and the torus.
