Local Scaling in Homogeneous Hamiltonian Systems

chao-dyn 2009-10-28 v1 Chaotic Dynamics

Abstract

We study the local scaling properties associated with straight line periodic orbits in homogeneous Hamiltonian systems, whose stability undergoes repeated oscillations as a function of one parameter. We give strong evidence of local scaling of the Poincar\'{e} section with exponents depending simply on the degree of homogeneity of the potential.
