Abstract

Let \Diffmr(M)\Diff^{ r}_m(M) be the set of CrC^{ r} volume-preserving diffeomorphisms on a compact Riemannian manifold MM (dimM2\dim M\geq 2). In this paper, we prove that the diffeomorphisms without zero Lyapunov exponents on a set of positive volume are C1C^1 dense in \Diffmr(M),r1\Diff^{ r}_m(M), r\geq 1. We also prove a weaker result for symplectic diffeomorphisms Symωr(M),r1\mathcal{S}ym^{r}_{\omega}(M), r\geq1 saying that the symplectic diffeomorphisms with non-zero Lyapunov exponents on a set of positive volume are C1C^1 dense in Symωr(M),r1\mathcal{S}ym^{r}_{\omega}(M), r\geq1 .
