    The author estimates the length L of a closed geodesic of minimal length on a closed convex hypersurface \(M^ n\) as follows \[ L^ n\leq (2\pi)^{n-1} \Gamma^ 2(n/2+1/2)Vol(M^ n). \] The main theorem is more general and applies to minimal k-spheres in \(M^ n\) if the usual minimax argument gives a solution - which has only been shown to be the case for \(k=2\) and \(n=3\).
