Mar 16, 2021 at 12:40 comment added user142700 @LeoMoos I was not aware of this fact concerning bumpy metrics. Do you know a reference where this property is mentioned?
Mar 16, 2021 at 3:31 comment added Leo Moos For the generic set of so-called bumpy metrics the closed geodesics satisfy your multiplicity condition, no? In general maybe you could try to argue by contradiction, and extract a subsequence converging to some limit geodesic $\gamma$. In naive terms one might hope to prove some continuity of the second variation, although I'm a bit skeptical... (This fails in the 'higher-dimensional case', when one works with minimal surfaces.)
