Abstract

We prove that every closed characteristic of minimal action on the boundary of a uniformly convex domain in R4\R^4 bounds a disk-like global surface of section. A corollary is that the cylindrical symplectic capacity of a convex body in R4\R^4 coincides with the minimal action of a closed generalized characteristic on its boundary.
