متن کاملOn the average indices of closed geodesics on positively curved Finsler spheres
In this paper, we prove that on every Finsler n-sphere (S, F ) for n ≥ 6 with reversibility λ and flag curvature K satisfying ( λ λ+1 )2 < K ≤ 1, either there exist infinitely many prime closed geodesics or there exist [ 2 ] − 2 closed geodesics possessing irrational average indices. If in addition the metric is bumpy, then there exist n − 3 closed geodesics possessing irrational average indice...
متن کاملClosed geodesics on positively curved Finsler spheres
In this paper, we prove that for every Finsler n-sphere (S, F ) for n ≥ 3 with reversibility λ and flag curvature K satisfying ( λ λ+1 )2 < K ≤ 1, either there exist infinitely many prime closed geodesics or there exists one elliptic closed geodesic whose linearized Poincaré map has at least one eigenvalue which is of the form exp(πiμ) with an irrational μ. Furthermore, there always exist three...
متن کاملOn Stretch curvature of Finsler manifolds
In this paper, Finsler metrics with relatively non-negative (resp. non-positive), isotropic and constant stretch curvature are studied. In particular, it is showed that every compact Finsler manifold with relatively non-positive (resp. non-negative) stretch curvature is a Landsberg metric. Also, it is proved that every (α,β)-metric of non-zero constant flag curvature and non-zero relatively i...
متن کاملOn The Closed Geodesics Problem
In this paper we review some important results on the closed geodesics problem for compact Riemannian manifolds, as the Gromoll-Mayer Theorem, and discuss some extension of those results to the case of Finsler and semi Rimannian manifolds.
