According to Jairo comment on the first version of this question I revise the question as follwos;follows; Let $g$ be a realreal analytic Riemannan metric on $S^{2}$. Is it true toto say that:
There are at most a finite number of disjoint simple closed geodesics on $S^{2}$.
If the answer is yes put $m$= the sup of the number of such disjoint closed geodesics.
whatWhat is a geometric interpretation for this geometric invariant $m$?
For a given $n\in \mathbb{N}$ ,is is there a real analytic riemannianRiemannian metric on $S^{2}$$S^{2} $ for which $m=n$
