Arbitrarily short geodesics in closed hyperbolic manifolds of every dimension

From papers

For an integer nn, a closed hyperbolic nn-manifold is a compact manifold locally isometric to nn-dimensional hyperbolic space, and a closed geodesic is a geodesic that is periodic. Arbitrarily short geodesics conjecture. There exist closed hyperbolic nn-manifolds with arbitrarily short geodesics. The paper proves the analogous assertion in dimension 44 and explains that this conjecture would follow from the subsequent GFERF conjecture. Its status in the source is not specified.
