The homology classes of large-scale periodic orbits on nonlinear space (Q1292966)

Let \(M^n\) be an \(n\)-dimensional \(C^\infty\)-manifold and \(T^* M^n\) the cotangent bundle of \(M^n\), that is the phase space of the Hamiltonian system \({\mathcal H}: T^* M^n\to \mathbb{R}\). The main goal of this note is to estimate the number of types of large-scale periodic motions of the Hamilton system by means of the topological properties of the phase space and the Hamiltonian \({\mathcal H}\). To this end the author uses homology groups and the Morse inequalities.
