Abstract

Let $G$ be a Lie group equipped with a left-invariant Randers metric $F$. Suppose that $F^v$ and $F^c$ denote the vertical and complete lift of $F$ on $TG$, respectively. We give the necessary and sufficient conditions under which $F^v$ and $F^c$ are generalized Douglas-Weyl metrics. Then, we characterize all 2-step nilpotent Lie groups $G$ such that their tangent Lie groups $(TG, F^c)$ are generalized Douglas-Weyl Randers metrics.
