Abstract
Continuing the paper[3] we are to study here the higher order relativistic geometrical optics, and describe the theory of the electromagnetic field. In the first two sections there are some old and new results concerning the canonical metrical N-connection CT(JV) of the generalized higher order Lagrange space GL(k)n endowed with the fundamental metric tensor (1.2). The coefficients of CT(N) are given in (2.4).
