Abstract
Here we study geodesics connecting two given points on odd-dimensional spheres respecting the Hopf fibration. This geodesic boundary value problem is completely solved in the case of three-dimensional sphere and some partial results are obtained in the general case. The Carnot–Carathéodory distance is calculated. We also present some motivations related to quantum mechanics.
