    If the geometry satisfies the Postulate of Freedom, (the nature of space imposes no restrictions on admissible metrical relations), and determines a unique, symmetric, linear connection \(\Gamma\), then the Finsler metric field \(F_{p}(dx)\) must be a Riemannian metric field of some signature.[56]
