Abstract

Let Xr(M)\mathscr{X}^r(M) be the set of CrC^r vector fields on a boundaryless compact Riemannian manifold MM. Given a vector field X0Xr(M)X_0\in\mathscr{X}^r(M) and a compact invariant set Γ\Gamma of X0X_0, we consider the closed subset Xr(M,Γ)\mathscr{X}^r(M,\Gamma) of Xr(M)\mathscr{X}^r(M), consisting of all CrC^r vector fields which coincide with X0X_0 on Γ\Gamma. Study of such a set naturally arises when one needs to perturb a system while keeping part of the dynamics untouched. A vector field XXr(M,Γ)X\in\mathscr{X}^r(M,\Gamma) is called Γ\Gamma-avoiding Kupka-Smale, if the dynamics away from Γ\Gamma is Kupka-Smale. We show that a generic vector field in Xr(M,Γ)\mathscr{X}^r(M,\Gamma) is Γ\Gamma-avoiding Kupka-Smale. In the C1C^1 topology, we obtain more generic properties for X1(M,Γ)\mathscr{X}^1(M,\Gamma). With these results, we further study codimension one partially hyperbolic dynamics for generic vector fields in X1(M,Γ)\mathscr{X}^1(M,\Gamma), giving a dichotomy of hyperbolicity and Newhouse phenomenon. As an application, we obtain that C1C^1 generically in X1(M)\mathscr{X}^1(M), a non-trivial Lyapunov stable chain recurrence class of a singularity which admits a codimension 2 partially hyperbolic splitting with respect to the tangent flow is a homoclinic class.
