    The authors establish an integral-geometric formula for minimal two-spheres inside homogeneous three-spheres, and use it to provide a characterisation of each homogeneous metric on the three-dimensional real projective space as the unique metric with the largest possible two-systole among metrics with the same volume in its conformal class.
