Abstract

In this paper, we prove that there exist at least nn geometrically distinct brake orbits on every C2C^2 compact convex symmetric hypersurface \Sg\Sg in R2n\R^{2n} satisfying the reversible condition N\Sg=\SgN\Sg=\Sg with N=\diag(In,In)N=\diag (-I_n,I_n). As a consequence, we show that if the Hamiltonian function is convex and even, then Seifert conjecture of 1948 on the multiplicity of brake orbits holds for any positive integer nn.
