Abstract: In this paper, let $Sigmasubset{R}^6$ be a compact convex hypersurface. We prove that if $Sigma$ carries only finitely many geometrically distinct closed characteristics, then at least two of them must possess irrational mean indices. Moreover, if $Sg$ carries exactly three geometrically distinct closed characteristics, then at least two of them must be elliptic.

Review text

The main result of the present paper establishes that if a compact convex hypersurface in \({\mathbb R}^6\) carries only finitely geometrically distinct closed characteristics, then at least two of them must have irrational mean indices. The main ingredients in the proof are the following: the mean index identity for closed characteristics; the Morse inequality; and the index iteration theory, especially the common index jump theorem established by \textit{Y. Long} and \textit{C. Zhu} [Ann. Math. (2) 155, No.~2, 317--368 (2002; Zbl 1028.53003)].
