Arnold's diffusion in quasi integrable hamiltonian systems occurs in exponentially large time. We study an initially hyperbolic system which admits diffusion in polynomial time.
In this paper, Arnold diffusion is proved to be generic phenomenon in nearly integrable convex Hamiltonian systems with three degrees of freedom: $$ H(x,y)=h(y)+\epsilon P(x,y), \qquad x\in\mathbb{T}^3,\ y\in\mathbb{R}^3. $$ Under typical…
In this paper Arnold diffusion is proved to be a generic phenomenon in nearly integrable convex Hamiltonian systems with arbitrarily many degrees of freedom: $$ H(x,y)=h(y)+\eps P(x,y), \qquad x\in\mathbb{T}^n,\ y\in\mathbb{R}^n,\quad n\geq…

We study the problem of Arnold's diffusion in an example of isochronous system by using a geometrical method known as Windows Method. Despite the simple features of this example, we show that the absence of an anisochrony term leads to…

We provide numerical evidence of global diffusion occurring in slightly perturbed integrable Hamiltonian systems and symplectic maps. We show that even if a system is sufficiently close to be integrable, global diffusion occurs on a set…
The full three-body problem, on the motion of three celestial bodies under their mutual gravitational attraction, is one of the oldest unsolved problems in classical mechanics. The main difficulty comes from the presence of unstable and…
Starting with Arnold's pioneering work, the term "Arnold diffusion" has been used to describe the slow diffusion taking place in the space of the actions in Hamiltonian nonlinear dynamical systems with three or more degrees of freedom. The…
For a mechanical system consisting of a rotator and a pendulum coupled via a small, time-periodic Hamiltonian perturbation, the Arnold diffusion problem asserts the existence of `diffusing orbits' along which the energy of the rotator grows…
In the present paper we apply the geometrical mechanism of diffusion in an \emph{a priori} unstable Hamiltonian system with 3 $+$ 1/2 degrees of freedom. This mechanism consists of combining iterations of the \emph{inner} and \emph{outer}…
