Abstract

The space of geodesics on a Zoll manifold, i.e., a Riemannian manifold all of whose geodesics are closed with the same minimal period, carries a natural symplectic structure. In this note, it is shown that the space of geodesics on a Zoll three-sphere is symplectomorphic to the product of two copies of two-spheres with the same area.
