Thesis
On the construction of invariant tori and integrable Hamiltonians
- Abstract:
-
The main principle of this thesis is to employ the geometric representation of Hamiltonian dynamics: in a broad sense, we study how to construct, in phase space, geometric structures that are related to a dynamical system. More specifically, we study the problem of constructing phase-space tori that are approximate invariant tori of a given Hamiltonian; also, using the constructed tori, we define an integrable Hamiltonian closely approximating the original one. The methods are generally a...
