Abstract

We deal with a Newtonian system like x over dots + V'(x) = 0. We suppose that V : R-n --> R possesses an (n - 1)-dimensional compact manifold M of critical points, and we prove the existence of arbitrarily slow periodic orbits. When the period tends to infinity these orbits, rescaled in time, converge to some closed geodesics on M.
