One of the fruitful tools for examining the properties of a Riemannian manifold is the study of “geodesic deviation”. The manner in which a vector, representing the displacement between points on two neighbouring geodesies, behaves gives an indication of the difference between the manifold and an Euclidean space. The study is essentially a geometrical approach to the second variation of the lengthintegral in the calculus of variations [1]. Similar considerations apply in the geometry of Lyra [2] but as we shall see, appropriate analytical modifications must be made. The approach given here is modelled after that of Rund [3] which was originally designed to deal with a Finsler manifold but which applies equally well to the present case.
