Besicovitch-type product inequality for closed geodesics on higher-dimensional spheres
Besicovitch-type product inequality for closed geodesics on higher-dimensional spheres
Let , and let be an -dimensional Riemannian sphere. A Besicovitch-type product inequality asserts that there is a constant , depending only on the dimension , such that there exist distinct closed geodesics with lengths satisfying
This conjectures a higher-dimensional analogue of the proved two-dimensional inequality, which bounds the product of the lengths of two distinct closed geodesics by the area of a Riemannian -sphere. The higher-dimensional statement remains open in the supplied source.
