Moser's twist theorem revisited

Dynamical Systems 2026-02-10 v3

Abstract

Inspired by the work of Katznelson and Ornstein, we present a short way to achieve the almost optimal regularity in Moser's twist theorem. Specifically, for an integrable area-preserving twist map, the invariant circle with a given constant type frequency α\alpha persists under a small perturbation (dependent on α\alpha) of class C3+ϵC^{3+\epsilon}. This result was initially established independently by Herman and R\"{u}ssmann in 1983. Our method differs essentially from their approaches.
