AbstractTwo Cr, r ≥ 2, expanding maps of the circle which are absolutely continuously conjugate are Cr conjugate. Here ƒ and g: S1 → S1 are expanding if they stretch tangent vectors in some metric, and a conjugacy is an isomorphism h: S1 → S1 such that fh = hg.

In the setting of Banach manifolds the notion of tangent vector to an arbitrary closed subset has been introduced in [11] by the author and N. H. Pavel, and it has been used in flow-invariance and optimization ([11], [12], [13]). For detailed informations on tangent vectors to closed sets (including historical comments) we refer to the recent book of N. H. Pavel [17].The aim of this paper is to apply this general concept of tangency in the study of geodesies. We are concerned with geodesies which have either the endpoints in given closed subsets or the same angle for a fixed closed subset. This approach allows one to extend important results due to K. Grove [4] and T. Kurogi ([6], [7]).
