Abstract :
In this paper, we study the geometry of Lie groups with bi-invariant Finsler metrics. We first show that every compact Lie group admits a bi-invariant Finsler metric. Then, we prove that every compact connected Lie group is a symmetric Finsler space with respect to the bi-invariant absolute homogeneous Finsler metric. Finally, we show that if G is a Lie group endowed with a bi-invariant Finsler metric, then, there exists a bi-invariant Riemanninan metric on G such that its Levi-Civita connection coincides the connection of F.
