Abstract

The Hofer–Zehnder theorem states that almost every hypersurface in a thickening of a hypersurface $S$ in a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ carries a closed characteristic, provided that $S$ bounds a compact submanifold and $(M,\omega)$ has finite capacity. It is shown that it is enough to assume that the thickening of $S$ has finite capacity.
