    Linear bounds for lengths of geodesic segments on Riemannian 2-spheres (English)
    0 references
    The authors continue their series of papers related to the estimate of the length for a prescribed number of geodesics connecting two given points on a Riemannian manifold. Here it is shown that on a Riemannian manifold diffeomorphic to the two-dimensional sphere this upper bound is linear with respect to the number of the considered geodesics.
