A geodesic of a homogeneous Riemannian manifold ( M = G / K , g ) is called homogeneous if it is an orbit of an one-parameter subgroup of G . In the case when M = G / H is a naturally reductive space, that is the G -invariant metric g is defined by some non degenerate biinvariant symmetric bilinear form B , all geodesics of M are homogeneous. We consider the case when M = G / K is a flag manifold, i.eȧn adjoint orbit of a compact semisimple Lie group G , and we give a simple necessary condition that M admits a non-naturally...
