Abstract
The volume forms of general ($\alpha ,\beta $)-metrics are studied. Some equations for minimal submanifolds in general $(\alpha ,\beta )$-spaces are established by using the normal frame field, and some minimal surfaces in general $(\alpha ,\beta )$-spaces with special curvature properties are constructed.
