Abstract: We establish the splitting lemmas (or generalized Morse lemmas) for the energy functionals of Finsler metrics on the natural Hilbert manifolds of -curves around a critical point or a critical orbit of a Finsler isometry invariant closed geodesic. They are the desired generalization on Finsler manifolds of the corresponding Gromoll-Meyer's splitting lemmas on Riemannian manifolds (cite{GM1, GM2}). As an application we extend to Finsler manifolds a result by Grove and Tanaka cite{GroTa78, Tan82} about the existence of infinitely many, geometrically distinct, isometry invariant closed geodesics on a closed Riemannian manifold.
