As a consequence, we show that a charge on a compact manifold with a nondegenerate (i.e. symplectic) magnetic field has periodic orbits on a sequence of energy levels converging to zero.19 pages, 1 figureDifferential GeometryDynamical SystemsSymplectic Geometry58F05(primary), 58F22(secondary)Periodic orbits of Hamiltonian flows near symplectic extrematext
