Abstract: There is a long standing conjecture in Hamiltonian analysis which claims that there exist at least $n$ geometrically distinct closed characteristics on every compact convex hypersurface in $R^{2n}$ with $nge2$. Besides many partial results, this conjecture has been only completely solved for $n=2$. In this paper, we give a confirmed answer to this conjecture for $n=3$. In order to prove this result, we establish first a new resonance identity for closed characteristics on every compact convex hypersurface $Sg$ in $R^{2n}$ when the number of geometrically distinct closed characteristics on $Sg$ is finite. Then using this identity and earlier techniques of the index iteration theory, we prove the mentioned multiplicity result for $R^6$. If there are exactly two geometrically distinct closed characteristics on a compact convex hypersuface in $R^4$, we prove that both of them must be irrationally elliptic.
