“…Let 𝐹 : 𝑀 × [0, 1] → R be a Hamiltonian, and 𝛾 : [0, 1] → 𝑀 a flow line of 𝑋 𝐹𝑡 . Then, for any 𝑡 0 ∈ (0, 1), and neighborhood 𝑉 of 𝛾(𝑡 0 ); we have that for every 𝑣 ∈ 𝑇 𝛾(1) 𝑀 , there is a smooth one parameter family of functions 𝑓 𝑠 : 𝑀 × [0, 1] → R, 𝑠 ∈ [0, 𝜏 ), for some 𝜏 > 0, such that • 𝑓 0 = 0 • for some 𝜖 > 0, 𝑓 𝑠 (𝑥, 𝑡) = 0, for 𝑡 < 𝜖 and 𝑡 > 1 − 𝜖 and all 𝑠 • 𝑓 𝑠 ≥ 0, for all 𝑠 • 𝑠𝑢𝑝𝑝(𝑓 𝑠 ) ⊂ 𝑉 , for all 𝑠 • The tangent vector to the curve 𝑠 ↦ → 𝜑 1 𝐹 +𝑓𝑠 (𝛾(0)) at 𝑠 = 0 is equal to 𝑣.…”
