Twist Maps and Aubry-Mather Sets
نویسندگان
چکیده
For an area-preserving twist map F of a finite annulus, we obtain “quasi-foliations” of the annulus by one-sided-F -invariant graphs of functions that are either continuous (in which case the graph is a fully invariant curve) or have countably many jump discontinuities. For each of the one-sided-invariant graphs there is a well defined (one-sided) rotation number and all the numbers between the rotation numbers associated with the boundary circles are

A Rigorous Partial Justification of Greene ' Scriterion 1
We prove several theorems that lend support for Greene's criterion for existence or not of invariant circles in twist maps. In particular, we show that some of the implications of the criterion are correct when the Aubry-Mather sets are smooth invariant circles or uniformly hyperbolic. We also suggest a simple modiication that can work in the case that the Aubry-Mather sets have non-zero Lyapun...
متن کاملHyperbolicity for conservative twist maps of the 2-dimensional annulus
These are notes for a minicourse given at Regional Norte UdelaR in Salto, Uruguay for the conference CIMPA Research School Hamiltonian and Lagrangian Dynamics. We will present Birkhoff and Aubry-Mather theory for the conservative twist maps of the 2-dimensional annulus and focus on what happens close to the Aubry-Mather sets: definition of the Green bundles, link between hyperbolicity and shape...
متن کاملThe link between the shape of the Aubry - Mather sets and their Lyapunov exponents
We consider the irrational Aubry-Mather sets of an exact symplectic monotone C 1 twist map, introduce for them a notion of " C 1-regularity " (related to the notion of Bouligand paratingent cone) and prove that : • a Mather measure has zero Lyapunov exponents iff its support is almost everywhere C 1-regular; • a Mather measure has non zero Lyapunov exponents iff its support is almost everywhere...
متن کاملConnecting orbits of time dependent Lagrangian systems
We generalize to higher dimension results of Birkhoff and Mather on the existence of orbits wandering in regions of instability of twist maps. This generalization is strongly inspired by the one proposed by Mather in [7]. However, its advantage is that it contains most of the results of Birkhoff and Mather on twist maps. A very natural class of problems in dynamical systems is the existence of ...
متن کاملGeometric Proofs of Mather’s Connecting and Accelerating Theorems
In this paper we present simplified proofs of two important theorems of J.Mather. The first (connecting) theorem [Ma2] is about wandering trajectories of exact area-preserving twist maps naturally arising for Hamiltonian systems with 2 degrees of freedom. The second (accelerating) theorem is about dynamics of generic time-periodic Hamiltonian systems on twotorus (2.5-degrees of freedom). Mather...
