Existence of closed geodesics on Finsler n-spheres

چکیده
In this paper, we prove that on every Finsler n-sphere (S, F ) with reversibility λ satisfying F 2 < ( λ )g0 and l(S , F ) ≥ π(1 + 1 λ ), there always exist at least n prime closed geodesics without self-intersections, where g0 is the standard Riemannian metric on S n with constant curvature 1 and l(S, F ) is the length of a shortest geodesic loop on (S, F ). We also study the stability of these closed geodesics.

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...
