      The main results of the paper, that have an implication for Hamiltonian dynamics, are the following two theorems:NEWLINENEWLINE Theorem 1. Every (possibly degenerate) contact form on a closed three-manifold has at least two embedded Reeb orbits.NEWLINENEWLINE Theorem 2. Let \((Y,\lambda)\) be a closed contact three-manifold having only finitely many embedded Reeb orbits \(\gamma_1,\gamma_2,\dots,\gamma_m\). Then their symplectic actions NEWLINE\[NEWLINEA(j_1),A(j_2),\dots,A(j_m)NEWLINE\]NEWLINE are not all integer multiples of a single real number.
