The random Arnold Conjecture: a new probabilistic Conley-Zehnder Theory for symplectic maps

Dynamical Systems 2023-08-01 v2 Probability Symplectic Geometry

Abstract

We take the first steps to develop Conley-Zehnder Theory, as conjectured by Arnold, in the world of probability. As far as we know, this paper provides the first probabilistic theorems about the density of fixed points of symplectic twist maps in dimensions greater than 22. In particular we will show that, when the analogue conditions to classical Conley-Zehnder theory hold, quasiperiodic symplectic twist maps have infinitely many fixed points almost surely. The paper contains also a number of theorems which go well beyond the quasiperiodic case.
