Maslov Index, Spectral Flow and Bifurcation of Electromagnetic Geodesics Within an Energy Level

Abstract

We develop appropriate notions of Maslov index and spectral flow for electromagnetic geodesics within a fixed energy level and prove a Morse Index type theorem in this context. This is then applied to the problem of electromagnetic geodesics, all of whose energy are the same, bifurcating from a given one.
