Abstract
We present a class of symplectic integrators adapted for the integration of perturbed Hamiltonian systems of the form . We give a constructive proof that for all integer , there exists an integrator with positive steps with a remainder of order , where is the stepsize of the integrator. The analytical expressions of the leading terms of the remainders are given at all orders. In many cases, a corrector step can be performed such that the remainder becomes . The performances of these integrators are compared for the simple pendulum and the planetary 3-Body problem of Sun-Jupiter-Saturn.
