Abstract:
Let be a locally finite simplicial complex of finite topological dimension. Assume further that is a space where is a group whose only abelian subgroups are infinite cyclic. We prove that a Bohr almost periodic map of the real line into is uniformly homotopic to a periodic map. As a consequence we show that a Bohr almost periodic geodesic on a compact Riemannian manifold of everywhere negative curvature is necessarily periodic.
