1. BACKGROUNDWe fix a reference Riemannian metric go of (strictly) negative curvature on M. The following theorem is due to Morse [lo].THEOREM 1.1.(Morse). Let g be a Riemannian metric on M. Let g and go be the Zifts of g and of the Riemannian metric go of (strictly) negative curvature to the universal cover fi of M. Then there exists a constant K> 0, which depends only on g and go, such that any go-geodesic contains in its K-neighborhood a minimizing g-geodesic, and any minimizing g-geodesic contains a unique go-geodesic in its K-neighborhood. The map@: 2-+ go from the space 2 of &minimizing geodesics to the space go of go-geodesics which sends a minimizing g-geodesic to the go-geodesic in its K-neighborhood is continuous and proper.(When g has no conjugate points then &? is of course the space@ of all g-geodesics.) Moreover, the map.!? is n,(M) equivariant.
