On generalization of Zermelo navigation problem on Riemannian manifolds
Abstract: We generalize the Zermelo navigation problem and its solution on Riemannian manifolds $(M, h)$ admitting a space dependence of a ship's own speed $|u(x)|_h\leq1$ in the presence of a perturbation $W$ determined by a mild velocity vector field $|W(x)|_h<|u(x)|_h$, with application of Finsler metric of Randers type.
