A Bangert-Hingston Theorem for Starshaped Hypersurfaces

Abstract

Let $Q$ be a closed manifold with non-trivial first Betti number that admits a non-trivial $S^1$-action, and $\Sigma \subseteq T^*Q$ a non-degenerate starshaped hypersurface. We prove that the number of geometrically distinct Reeb orbits of period at most $T$ on $\Sigma$ grows at least logarithmically in $T$.
