From one Reeb orbit to two (Q5964028)

The main results of the paper, that have an implication for Hamiltonian dynamics, are the following two theorems: Theorem 1. Every (possibly degenerate) contact form on a closed three-manifold has at least two embedded Reeb orbits. 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 \[ A(j_1),A(j_2),\dots,A(j_m) \] are not all integer multiples of a single real number.
