A dichotomy result for closed characteristics on compact star-shaped hypersurfaces in R2n
Abstract
In this paper, we prove that if all closed characteristics on a compact non-degenerate star-shaped hypersurface in R2n are elliptic, then either there exist exactly n geometrically distinct closed characteristics, or there exist infinitely many geometrically distinct closed characteristics.
