In this paper, we establish an abstract infinite dimensional KAM theorem dealing with normal frequencies in weaker spectral asymptotics \Omega_{i}(\xi)=i^d+o(i^{d})+o(i^{\delta}), where $d>0, \delta<0$, which can be applied to a large class…
We give a simple proof of Kolmogorov's theorem on the persistence of a quasiperiodic invariant torus in Hamiltonian systems. The theorem is first reduced to a well-posed inversion problem (Herman's normal form) by switching the frequency…
We investigate variational principles for the approximation of quantum dynamics that apply for approximation manifolds that do not have complex linear tangent spaces. The first one, dating back to McLachlan (1964) minimizes the residuum of…
In this paper, we investigate perturbations of linear integrable Hamiltonian systems, with the aim of establishing results in the spirit of the KAM theorem (preservation of invariant tori), the Nekhoroshev theorem (stability of the action…
From the beginning of KAM theory, it was realized that its applicability to realistic problems depended on developing quantitative estimates on the sizes of the perturbations allowed. In this paper we present results on the existence of…
We consider the semiclassical operator $\hat{H}(\epsilon,h):=H_{0}(hD_{x})+\epsilon \tilde{P}_{0}$ on $L^{2}(\mathbb{R}^{l})$, where the symbol of $\hat{H}(\epsilon,h)$ corresponds to a perturbed classical Hamiltonian of the form:…
In this paper, we establish a KAM-theorem for ordinary differential equations with finitely differentiable vector fields and multiple degeneracies. The theorem can be used to deal with the persistence of quasi-periodic invariant tori in…
The classical Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM) theorem provides the underlying mechanism for the stability of the solar system under some small chaotic perturbations. Despite many previous efforts, any quantum version of the KAM theorem…
We prove the Arnold conjecture for closed symplectic manifolds with $\pi_2(M)=0$ and $\cat M=\dim M$. Furthermore, we prove an analog of the Lusternik-Schnirelmann theorem for functions with ``generalized hyperbolicity'' property.
In this paper we construct a certain type of nearly integrable systems of two and a half degrees of freedom: \[H(p,q,t)=h(p)+\epsilon f(p,q,t),\quad (q,p)\in T^{*}\mathbb{T}^2,t\in \mathbb{S}^1=\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}, \] with a self-similar…
We obtain the sharp arithmetic Gordon's theorem: that is, absence of eigenvalues on the set of energies with Lyapunov exponent bounded by the exponential rate of approximation of frequency by the rationals, for a large class of…
Our understanding of the mechanisms governing the structure and secular evolution galaxies assume nearly integrable Hamiltonians with regular orbits; our perturbation theories are founded on the averaging theorem for isolated resonances. On…
In this paper we prove a Nekhoroshev type theorem for perturbations of Hamiltonians describing a particle subject to the force due to a central potential. Precisely, we prove that under an explicit condition on the potential, the…
The aim of this paper is to prove the Kolmogorov theorem of persistence of Diophantine flows for nearly-integrable Poisson systems associated to a real analytic Hamiltonian with aperiodic time dependence, provided that the perturbation is…
We consider the $d$-dimensional nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation under periodic boundary conditions: $-i\dot u=-\Delta u+V(x)*u+\ep \frac{\p F}{\p \bar u}(x,u,\bar u), \quad u=u(t,x), x\in\T^d $ where $V(x)=\sum \hat V(a)e^{i\sc{a,x}}$ is…
This work extends weak KAM theory to the case of a nonsmooth Lagrangian satisfying a superlinear growth condition. Using the solution of a weak KAM equation that is a stationary Hamilton-Jacobi equation and the proximal aiming method, we…
As a starting point of our research, we show that, for a fixed order $\gamma\geq 1$, each local minimizer of a rather general nonsmooth optimization problem in Euclidean spaces is either M-stationary in the classical sense (corresponding to…
We consider Gevrey perturbations $H$ of a completely integrable Gevrey Hamiltonian $H_0$. Given a Cantor set $\Omega_\kappa$ defined by a Diophantine condition, we find a family of KAM invariant tori of $H$ with frequencies $\omega\in…
From KAM Theory it follows that the measure of phase points which do not lie on Diophantine, Lagrangian, "primary" tori in a nearly--integrable, real--analytic Hamiltonian system is $O(\sqrt{\varepsilon})$, if $\varepsilon$ is the size of…
We consider a perturbation of the Benjamin Ono equation with periodic boundary conditions on a segment. We consider the case where the perturbation is Hamiltonian and the corresponding Hamiltonian vector field is analytic as a map form…
