Abstract

In this paper, the following three are shown. (1) For a CC^\infty convex integrand γ:SnR+\gamma: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+, its dual convex integrand δ:SnR+\delta: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+ is of class CC^\infty. (2) For a stable convex integrand γ:SnR+\gamma: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+, its dual convex integrand δ:SnR+\delta: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+ is stable. (3) Let γ:SnR+\gamma: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+ be a stable convex integrand. Then, for any ii (0in)(0\le i\le n), θ0Sn\theta_0\in S^n is a non-degenerate critical point of γ\gamma with Morse index ii if and only if θ0Sn-\theta_0\in S^n is a non-degenerate critical point of the dual convex integrand δ{\delta} with Morse index (ni)(n-i).
