In this paper, we study the nonlinear Schrödinger equation on Zoll manifolds with odd order nonlinearities. We will obtain the local well-poesdness in the critical space math-equation-construct">mage="true" class="math-equation-image">mathml="true" class="math-equation-mathml" style="display:none">math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML">Hs0(M)math>. This extends the recent results in the literature to the Zoll manifolds of dimension d≥2 with general odd order nonlinearities and also partially improves the previous results in the subcritical spaces of Yang to the critical cases.
