In this work, we obtain an a-posteriori theorem for the existence of partly hyperbolic invariant tori in analytic Hamiltonian systems: autonomous, periodic, and quasi-periodic. The method of proof is based on the convergence of a KAM…

A variational method is studied based on the minimum of energy variance. The method is tested on exactly soluble problems in quantum mechanics, and is shown to be a useful tool whenever the properties of states are more relevant than the…
