I am trying to show that there exist unique orthogonal trajectories on the $n$-manifold $L_{\lambda} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ that pass through a given point. Here $L_{\lambda}$ is given by points $(x,y) \in \mathbb{R}^{\lambda} \times \mathbb{R}^{n-\lambda}$ such that $-1 \leq -|x|^2+|y|^2 \leq 1$ and $|x||y| < (\cosh 1)(\sinh 1)$. I think doing this is possible by reducing the problem to the $2$-dimensional case, but I can't quite get the formalism to work out. Any suggestions?
