Proof of the index conjecture in Hofer geometry

Year: 2012
Type: preprint
Abstract: Let $γ$ be a non-degenerate Ustilovsky geodesic in $Ham (M, ω)$ generated by $H$. We give a simple proof of a generalization of the conjecture stated in \cite{virtmorse}, relating the Morse index of $ γ$, as a critical point of the Hofer length functional, with the Conley Zehnder index of the extremizers of $H$, considered as periodic orbits.
