Connecting and closed geodesics of a Kropina metric

Abstract

We prove some results about existence of connecting and closed geodesics in a manifold endowed with a Kropina metric. These have applications to both null geodesics of spacetimes endowed with a null Killing vector field and Zermelo's navigation problem with critical wind.
