Abstract

We consider Reeb flows on the tight 3-sphere admitting a pair of closed orbits forming a Hopf link. If the rotation numbers associated to the transverse linearized dynamics at these orbits fail to satisfy a certain resonance condition then there exist infinitely many periodic trajectories distinguished by their linking numbers with the components of the link. This result admits a natural comparison to the Poincar,-Birkhoff theorem on area-preserving annulus homeomorphisms. An analogous theorem holds on and applies to geodesic flows of Finsler metrics on S-3. (AU)
