A short survey on the type numbers of closed geodesics, on applications of the Morse theory to proving the existence of closed geodesics and on the recent progress in applying variational methods to the periodic problem for Finsler and…
New mathematical objects called Finslerian N-spinors are discussed. The Finslerian N-spinor algebra is developed. It is found that Finslerian N-spinors are associated with an N^2-dimensional flat Finslerian space. A generalization of the…

Approximate symmetries of geodesic equations on 2-spheres are studied. These are the symmetries of the perturbed geodesic equations which represent approximate path of a particle rather than exact path. After giving the exact symmetries of…
The paper is a study of geodesic in two-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian metrics. Firstly, the local properties of geodesics in a neighborhood of generic parabolic points are investigated. The equation of the geodesic flow has singularities at…
A spherical n-gon is a bordered surface homeomorphic to a closed disk, with n distinguished boundary points called corners, equipped with a Riemannian metric of constant curvature 1, except at the corners, and such that the boundary arcs…
We describe, in terms of generalized elliptic integrals, the hyperbolic metric of the twice-punctured sphere with one conical singularity of prescribed order. We also give several monotonicity properties of the metric and a couple of…
In his famous 1981 paper, Lempert proved that given a point in a strongly convex domain the complex geodesics (i.e., the extremal disks) for the Kobayashi metric passing through that point provide a very useful fibration of the domain. In…
We compute the $k$-width of a round $2$-sphere for $k=1,\ldots,8$ and we use this result to show that unstable embedded closed geodesics can arise with multiplicity as a min-max critical varifold.
We prove the absence of a universal diameter bound on lengths of curves in a sweep-out of a Riemannian 2-sphere. If such bound existed it would yield a simple proof of existence of short geodesic segments and closed geodesics on a sphere of…
We show that there are uncountably many geodesics between any two non-isometric $n$-dimensional normed spaces. We construct two explicit geodesics that can be used to describe all the points of the other geodesics.
For a $C^{1}$ degree two latitude preserving endomorphism $f$ of the 2-sphere, we show that $f$ has $2^{n}$ periodic points.
The classic Lusternik--Schnirelmann theorem states that there are three distinct simple periodic geodesics on any Riemannian 2-sphere $M$. It has been proven by Y. Liokumovich, A. Nabutovsky and R. Rotman that the shortest three such curves…
In this paper, we prove that there exist at least $[\frac{n+1}{2}]+1$ geometrically distinct brake orbits on every $C^2$ compact convex symmetric hypersurface $\Sg$ in $\R^{2n}$ for $n\ge 2$ satisfying the reversible condition $N\Sg=\Sg$…
In this paper, we prove there exist at least $[\frac{n+1}{2}]+1$ geometrically distinct closed characteristics on every compact convex hypersurface $\Sg$ in $\R^{2n}$. Moreover, there exist at least $[\frac{n}{2}]+1$ geometrically distinct…
It is proved that the set of geodesic circles in two dimensions may be given a variational description and the explicit form of it is presented. In the limit case of the Euclidean geometry a certain claim of uniqueness of such description…
It is proved that the normalized $L^2$ metric on the moduli space of $n$-vortices on a two-sphere, endowed with any Riemannian metric, converges uniformly in the Bradlow limit to the Fubini-Study metric. This establishes, in a rigorous…
In this work we consider a finite dimensional approximation for the 2D Euler equations on the sphere, proposed by V. Zeitlin, and show their convergence towards a solution to Euler equations with marginals distributed as the enstrophy…
We study hyper-spheres, spheres and circles, with respect to an indefinite metric, in a tangent space on a 4-dimensional differentiable manifold. The manifold is equipped with a positive definite metric and an additional tensor structure of…
On a regular tetrahedron in spherical space there exist the finite number of simple closed geodesics. For any pair of coprime integers $(p,q)$ it was found the numbers $\alpha_1$ and $\alpha_2$ depending on $p$, $q$ and satisfying the…
