Perturbative weak KAM theory
Perturbative weak KAM theory
This chapter explores perturbation aspects of the weak Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM) theory. By perturbative weak KAM theory, we mean two things. How do the weak KAM solutions and the Mather, Aubry, and Mañé sets respond to limits of the Hamiltonian? How do the weak KAM solutions change when we perturb a system, in particular, what happens when we perturb (1) completely integrable systems, and (2) autonomous systems by a time-periodic perturbation? The chapter states and proves results in both aspects, as a technical tool for proving forcing equivalence. It derives a special Lipshitz estimate of weak KAM solutions for perturbations of autonomous systems. The proof relies on semi-concavity of weak KAM solution.
