Local C∞C^\infty-closing property for standard symplectic vector spaces

About 6 years old · traced to

Let (R2n,Ωstandard)({\mathbb R}^{2n},\Omega_{\textrm{standard}}) be the standard symplectic vector space, with n≥2n\geq 2. A symplectic manifold has the C∞C^\infty-closing property if, for every regular compact co-oriented hypersurface MM, the induced odd-symplectic manifold has the C∞C^\infty-closing property: there is a compatible symplectic form on R×M{\mathbb R}\times M such that for a Baire subset of C∞(M,R)C^\infty(M,\mathbb R), the closed leaves of the induced characteristic line distribution are dense on the corresponding graph hypersurface.

Local C∞C^\infty-closing property. The standard symplectic vector space (R2n,Ωstandard)({\mathbb R}^{2n},\Omega_{\textrm{standard}}) has the C∞C^\infty-closing property for every n≥2n\geq 2. In particular, every symplectic manifold without boundary has the local C∞C^\infty-closing property.

The conjecture concerns generic density of periodic orbits on hypersurfaces in symplectic dynamics. It is open for all n≥2n\geq 2, and essentially nothing is known for n≥3n\geq 3.
