Closed geodesics on positively curved Finsler spheres
In this paper, we prove that for every Finsler n-sphere (S, F ) for n ≥ 3 with reversibility λ and flag curvature K satisfying ( λ λ+1 )2 < K ≤ 1, either there exist infinitely many prime closed geodesics or there exists one elliptic closed geodesic whose linearized Poincaré map has at least one eigenvalue which is of the form exp(πiμ) with an irrational μ. Furthermore, there always exist three...
متن کاملGeodesics and Deformed Pseudo–riemannian Manifolds with Symmetry
There is a general method, applicable in many situations, whereby a pseudo–Riemannian metric, invariant under the action of some Lie group, can be deformed to obtain a new metric whose geodesics can be expressed in terms of the geodesics of the old metric and the action of the Lie group. This method applied to Euclidean space and the unit sphere produces new examples of complete Riemannian metr...
متن کاملTetrahedra on deformed spheres and integral group cohomology
We show that for every injective continuous map f : S → R there are four distinct points in the image of f such that the convex hull is a tetrahedron with the property that two opposite edges have the same length and the other four edges are also of equal length. This result represents a partial result for the topological Borsuk problem for R. Our proof of the geometrical claim, via Fadell– Hus...
متن کاملSpectral analysis and zeta determinant on the deformed spheres
We consider a class of singular Riemannian manifolds, the deformed spheres S k , defined as the classical spheres with a one parameter family g[k] of singular Riemannian structures, that reduces for k = 1 to the classical metric. After giving explicit formulas for the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the metric Laplacian ∆SN k , we study the associated zeta functions ζ(s,∆SN k ). We introduce ...
متن کاملExistence of closed geodesics on Finsler n-spheres
In this paper, we prove that on every Finsler n-sphere (S, F ) with reversibility λ satisfying F 2 < ( λ )g0 and l(S , F ) ≥ π(1 + 1 λ ), there always exist at least n prime closed geodesics without self-intersections, where g0 is the standard Riemannian metric on S n with constant curvature 1 and l(S, F ) is the length of a shortest geodesic loop on (S, F ). We also study the stability of thes...
