Relative periodic points of symplectic maps: persistence and bifurcations
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we study symplectic maps with a continuous symmetry group arising by periodic forcing of symmetric Hamiltonian systems. By Noether’s Theorem, for each continuous symmetry the symplectic map has a conserved momentum. We study the persistence of relative periodic points of the symplectic map when momentum is varied and also treat subharmonic persistence and relative subharmonic bifurcations of relative periodic points.

Relative Lyapunov Centre Bifurcations
Relative equilibria and relative periodic orbits (RPOs) are ubiquitous in symmetric Hamiltonian systems and occur for example in celestial mechanics, molecular dynamics and rigid body motion. Relative equilibria are equilibria and RPOs are periodic orbits of the symmetry reduced system. Relative Lyapunov centre bifurcations are bifurcations of relative periodic orbits from relative equilibria c...
متن کاملHamiltonian Systems Near Relative Periodic Orbits
We give explicit differential equations for a symmetric Hamiltonian vector field near a relative periodic orbit. These decompose the dynamics into periodically forced motion in a Poincaré section transversal to the relative periodic orbit, which in turn forces motion along the group orbit. The structure of the differential equations inherited from the symplectic structure and symmetry propertie...
متن کاملKam Theory and a Partial Justiication of Greene's Criterion for Non-twist Maps
We consider perturbations of integrable, area preserving non-twist maps of the annulus (those are maps that violate the twist condition in a very strong sense: @q 0 =@p changes sign). These maps appear in a variety of applications, notably transport in atmospheric Rossby waves. We show in suitable 2-parameter families the persistence of critical circles (invariant circles whose rotation number ...
