In this paper we prove that for every bumpy Finsler metric $F$ on every rationally homological $n$-dimensional sphere $S^n$ with $n\ge 2$, there exist always at least two distinct prime closed geodesics.
We show the existence of at least two geometrically distinct closed geodesics on an n-dimensional sphere with a bumpy and non-reversible Finsler metric for n>2.
In this paper, we prove that for every bumpy Finsler $n$-sphere $(S^n,\,F)$ with reversibility $\lambda$ and flag curvature $K$ satisfying $(\frac{\lambda}{\lambda+1})^2<K\le 1$, there exist $2[\frac{n+1}{2}]$ prime closed geodesics. This…
In this paper, we proved that for every Finsler metric on $S^n$ $(n\ge 4)$ with reversibility $\lambda$ and flag curvature $K$ satisfying $(\frac{2n-3}{n-1})^2 (\frac{\lambda}{\lambda+1})^2<K\le 1$ and $ \lambda<\frac{n-1}{n-2} $, there…
We construct all Finsler metrics on the two-sphere for which geodesics are circles and show that any (reversible) path geometry on a two-dimensional manifold is locally the system of geodesics of a Finsler metric.
We prove that for every $\Q$-homological Finsler 3-sphere $(M,F)$ with a bumpy and irreversible metric $F$, either there exist two non-hyperbolic prime closed geodesics, or there exist at least three prime closed geodesics.
In this paper, we prove there are at least two closed geodesics on any compact bumpy Finsler $n$-manifold with finite fundamental group and $n\ge 2$. Thus generically there are at least two closed geodesics on compact Finsler manifolds with…
In this paper, we prove that for every Finsler $n$-dimensional sphere $(S^{n},F)$ with reversibility $\lm$ and flag curvature $K$ satisfying $\left(\frac{\lm}{1+\lm}\right)^2<K\le 1$, either there exist infinitely many closed geodesics, or…
In this paper, we prove that for every Finsler $n$-sphere $(S^n, F)$ for $n\ge 3$ with reversibility $\lambda$ and flag curvature $K$ satisfying $(\frac{\lambda}{\lambda+1})^2<K\le 1$, either there exist infinitely many prime closed…
If all prime closed geodesics on $(S^n,F)$ with an irreversible Finsler metric $F$ are irrationally elliptic, there exist either exactly $2\left[\frac{n+1}{2}\right]$ or infinitely many distinct closed geodesics. As an application, we show…
In 1973, Katok constructed a non-degenerate (also called bumpy) Finsler metric on $S^3$ with exactly four prime closed geodesics. And then Anosov conjectured that four should be the optimal lower bound of the number of prime closed…
It's well known that the n-sphere $S^n$ is the universal double covering of the $n$-dimensional real projective space $\mathbb{R}P^n$ and then any Finsler metric on $\mathbb{R}P^n$ induces a Finsler metric of $S^n$. In this paper, we prove…
In this paper, we prove that for every Finsler $4$-dimensional sphere $(S^4,F)$ with reversibility $\lambda$ and flag curvature $K$ satisfying $\frac{25}{9}\left(\frac{\lambda}{1+\lambda}\right)^2<K\le 1$ with $\lambda<\frac{3}{2}$, either…
In this paper, we prove the existence of at least two distinct closed geodesics on every compact simply connected irreversible or reversible Finsler (including Riemannian) manifold of dimension not less than 2.
In this paper, we prove that on every Finsler $n$-sphere $(S^n, F)$ with reversibility $\lambda$ satisfying $F^2<(\frac{\lambda+1}{\lambda})^2g_0$ and $l(S^n, F)\ge \pi(1+\frac{1}{\lambda})$, there always exist at least $n$ prime closed…
We extend two celebrated theorems on closed geodesics of Riemannian 2-spheres to the larger class of reversible Finsler 2-spheres: Lusternik-Schnirelmann's theorem asserting the existence of three simple closed geodesics, and…
We prove the existence of two Alexandrov embedded closed magnetic geodesics on any two dimensional sphere with nonnegative Gauss curvature.
We apply topological methods and a Lusternik-Schnirelmann-type approach to prove existence results for closed geodesics of Finsler metrics on spheres and projective spaces. The main tool in the proofs are spherical complexities, which have…
We prove that for any reversible Finsler metric on S2, the number of prime closed geodesics grows quadratically with respect to length. The main tools are an improvement on Franks' theorem about the number of periodic points of…
In this paper we study the Finsler sphere $(S^n,F)$ with $n>1$, which has constant flag curvature $K\equiv 1$ and only finite prime closed geodesics. In this case, the connected isometry group $I_0(S^n,F)$ must be a torus which dimension…
