On $C^r-$closing for flows on 2-manifolds

Abstract

For some full measure subset B of the set of iet's (i.e. interval exchange transformations) the following is satisfied: Let X be a $C^r$, $1\le r\le \infty$, vector field, with finitely many singularities, on a compact orientable surface M. Given a nontrivial recurrent point $p\in M$ of X, the holonomy map around p is semi-conjugate to an iet $E:[0,1)\to [0,1).$ If $E\in B$ then there exists a $C^r$ vector field Y, arbitrarily close to X, in the $C^r-$topology, such that Y has a closed trajectory passing through p.
