We consider Hamiltonians of models describing non-relativistic quantum mechanical matter coupled to a relativistic field of bosons. If the free Hamiltonian has an eigenvalue, we show that this eigenvalue persists also for nonzero coupling.…
Rotators interacting with a pendulum via small, velocity independent, potentials are considered. If the interaction potential does not depend on the pendulum position then the pendulum and the rotators are decoupled and we study the…
We study the effect of quantum fluctuations on the half-polarized magnetization plateau of a pyrochlore antiferromagnet. We argue that an expansion around the easy axis limit is appropriate for discussing the ground state selection amongst…
We consider a class of degenerate equations satisfying a parabolic H\"ormander condition, with coefficients that are measurable in time and H\"older continuous in the space variables. By utilizing a generalized notion of strong solution, we…
In this paper we develop a potential theory for strongly degenerate parabolic operators of the form \[ \mathcal{L}:=\nabla_X\cdot(A(X,Y,t)\nabla_X)+X\cdot\nabla_{Y}-\partial_t, \] in unbounded domains of the form \[…
Classical KAM theory guarantees the existence of a positive measure set of invariant tori for sufficiently smooth non-degenerate near-integrable systems. When seen as a function of the frequency this invariant collection of tori is called…
The question of the total measure of invariant tori in analytic, nearly--integrable Hamiltonian systems is considered. In 1985, Arnol'd, Kozlov and Neishtadt, in the Encyclopaedia of Mathematical Sciences \cite{AKN1}, and in subsequent…
For perturbations of integrable Hamiltonians systems, the Nekhoroshev theorem shows that all solutions are stable for an exponentially long interval of time, provided the integrable part satisfies a steepness condition and the system is…
We apply the general normal form theorems in Kolmogorov spaces to three classical cases: deformations of hypersurface singularities, normal forms of vector fields and invariant tori in Hamiltonian systems.
The goal of this paper is to develop a KAM theory for tori with hyperbolic directions, which applies to Hamiltonian partial differential equations, even to some ill-posed ones. The main result has an \emph{a-posteriori} format, i.e., we…
We consider the classical problem of the continuation of periodic orbits surviving to the breaking of invariant lower dimensional resonant tori in nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems. In particular we extend our previous results…
We investigate bifurcation of closed orbits with a fixed energy level for a class of nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom. More precisely, we make a joint use of Moser invariant curve theorem and…
We work with small non-selfadjoint perturbations of a selfadjoint quantum Hamiltonian with two degrees of freedom, assuming that the principal symbol of the selfadjoint part is (classically) a nearly integrable system, together with a…
Important information about the dynamical structure of a differential system can be revealed by looking into its invariant compact manifolds, such as equilibria, periodic orbits, and invariant tori. This knowledge is significantly increased…
It is argued that, if a regular Hamiltonian is perturbed by a term that produces chaos, the onset of chaos is shifted towards larger values of the perturbation parameter if the unperturbed spectrum is degenerate and the lifting of the…
We consider in this work a model conservative system subject to dissipation and Gaussian-type stochastic perturbations. The original conservative system possesses a continuous set of steady states, and is thus degenerate. We characterize…
For an integrable Hamiltonian $H_0=1/2\sum_{i=1}^dy_i^2$ $(d\geq 2)$, we show that any Lagrangian torus with a given unique rotation vector can be destructed by arbitrarily $C^{2d-\delta}$-small perturbations. In contrast with it, it has…
We study quasi-periodic tori under a normal-internal resonance, possibly with multiple eigenvalues. Two non-degeneracy conditions play a role. The first of these generalizes invertibility of the Floquet matrix and prevents drift of the…
Given a smooth compact Riemannian manifold $M$ and a Hamiltonian $H$ on the cotangent space $T^*M$, strictly convex and superlinear in the momentum variables, we prove uniqueness of certain ergodic invariant Lagrangian graphs within a given…
We consider a class of a priori stable quasi-integrable analytic Hamiltonian systems and study the regularity of low-dimensional hyperbolic invariant tori as functions of the perturbation parameter. We show that, under natural nonresonance…
