On a new fixed point of the renormalization group operator for area-preserving maps
نویسندگان
چکیده
The breakup of the shearless invariant torus with winding number ω = √ 2 − 1 is studied numerically using Greene’s residue criterion in the standard nontwist map. The residue behavior and parameter scaling at the breakup suggests the existence of a new fixed point of the renormalization group operator (RGO) for area-preserving maps. The unstable eigenvalues of the RGO at this fixed point and the critical scaling exponents of the torus at breakup are computed.

The critical renormalization fixed point for commuting pairs of area-preserving maps
We prove the existence of the critical fixed point (F,G) for MacKay’s renormalization operator for pairs of maps of the plane. The maps F and G commute, are area-preserving, reversible, real analytic, and they satisfy a twist condition.
متن کاملOn hyperbolicity in the renormalization of near-critical area-preserving maps
We consider MacKay’s renormalization operator for pairs of area-preserving maps, near the fixed point obtained in [17]. Of particular interest is the restriction R0 of this operator to pairs that commute and have a zero Calabi invariant. We prove that a suitable extension of R 0 is hyperbolic at the fixed point, with a single expanding direction. The pairs in this direction are presumably commu...
متن کاملRenormalization and Transition to Chaos in Area Preserving Nontwist Maps
The problem of transition to chaos, i.e. the destruction of invariant circles or KAM (Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser) curves, in area preserving nontwist maps is studied within the renormalization group framework. Nontwist maps are maps for which the twist condition is violated along a curve known as the shearless curve. In renormalization language this problem is that of nding and studying the xed po...
متن کاملPeriod Doubling Renormalization for Area-Preserving Maps and Mild Computer Assistance in Contraction Mapping Principle
A universal period doubling cascade analogous to the famous FeigenbaumCoullet-Tresser period doubling has been observed in area-preserving maps of R. Existence of the “universal” map with orbits of all binary periods has been proved via a renormalization approach in (Eckmann et al 1984) and (Gaidashev et al 2011). These proofs use “hard” computer assistance. In this paper we attempt to reduce c...
متن کاملPeriod Doubling in Area-Preserving Maps: An Associated One Dimensional Problem
It has been observed that the famous Feigenbaum-Coullet-Tresser period doubling universality has a counterpart for area-preserving maps of R. A renormalization approach has been used in a computer-assisted proof of existence of an area-preserving map with orbits of all binary periods in [EKW1] and [EKW2]. As it is the case with all non-trivial universality problems in non-dissipative systems in...
