The Co-Points of Rays are Cut Points of Upper Level Sets for Busemann Functions

We show that the co-rays to a ray in a complete non-compact Finsler manifold contain geodesic segments to upper level sets of Busemann functions. Moreover, we characterise the co-point set to a ray as the cut locus of such level sets. The structure theorem of the co-point set on a surface, namely th...

We show that the co-rays to a ray in a complete non-compact Finsler manifold contain geodesic segments to upper level sets of Busemann functions. Moreover, we characterise the co-point set to a ray as the cut locus of such level sets. The structure theorem of the co-point set on a surface, namely that is a local tree, and other properties follow immediately from the known results about the cut locus. We point out that some of our findings, in special the relation of co-point set to the upper lever sets, are new even for Riemannian manifolds.
I am grateful to Professor M. Tanaka for bringing this topic into my attention and for many illuminating discussions. I am also deeply indebted to the anonymous referees for their constructive criticism and extremely useful suggestions that improved the manuscript enormously. Also I thank to N. Boonnam for reading an early version of the paper.
