Abstract

Motivated by the ergodic closing lemma of Ma\~n\'e, we investigate the CC^\infty closing lemma in higher-dimensional Hamiltonian systems, with a focus on the statistical behavior of periodic orbits generated by CC^\infty-small perturbations. We demonstrate that, under certain Floer-theoretic conditions, invariant or recurrent Lagrangian submanifolds can give rise to periodic orbits whose statistical properties are controllable. For instance, we show that for Hamiltonian systems preserving the zero section in TTnT^*\mathbb{T}^n, CC^\infty generically, there exist periodic orbits converging to an invariant measure supported on the zero section.
