Abstract

We demonstrate that every closed manifold of dimension at least two admits smooth metrics with respect to which the length spectrum is not a discrete subset of the real line. In contrast, we show that the length spectrum of any real analytic metric on a closed manifold is a discrete subset of the real line. In particular, the length spectrum of any closed locally homogeneous space forms a discrete set.
