A posteriori KAM existence conjecture for whiskered tori in the Boussinesq equation

Let 4μ>04\mu>0 be a parameter in the Boussinesq equation such that the center space has dimension 222\ell\geq 2. Fix a Diophantine exponent ν>\nu>\ell, a regularity exponent m>5/2m>5/2, and a positive analyticity radius ρ0\rho_0. Let ω0\omega^0 be the frequency vector of the small-amplitude motions, and let X=Hρ,m(T)×Hρ,m2(T)X=H^{\rho,m}(\mathbb T)\times H^{\rho,m-2}(\mathbb T). For a positive function aa, write Ba(ε)(ω0)RB_{a(\varepsilon)}(\omega^0)\subset\mathbb R^\ell for the ball of radius a(ε)a(\varepsilon) centered at ω0\omega^0.

A posteriori KAM existence conjecture. There exist three explicit functions a,bd,ba:R+R+a,b_d,b_a:\mathbb R^+\to\mathbb R^+ such that

a(s)0,bd(s),ba(s)as s0,a(s)\to0,\qquad b_d(s),b_a(s)\to\infty\quad\text{as }s\to0,

and, for sufficiently small ε\varepsilon, every ωD(b(ε),ν)Ba(ε)(ω0)\omega\in\mathcal D(b(\varepsilon),\nu)\cap B_{a(\varepsilon)}(\omega^0) admits an analytic embedding K:Dρ0XK:D_{\rho_0}\to X solving the invariant-torus equation with frequency ω\omega. Moreover,

D(b(ε),ν)Ba(ε)(ω0)Ba(ε)(ω0)1,\frac{\left|\mathcal D(b(\varepsilon),\nu)\cap B_{a(\varepsilon)}(\omega^0)\right|}{\left|B_{a(\varepsilon)}(\omega^0)\right|}\longrightarrow1,

and the map sending ω\omega to KK is Lipschitz in the topology of analytic embeddings from DρD_{\rho'} to XX for every ρ<ρ0\rho'<\rho_0.

This is an a posteriori KAM assertion for analytic invariant tori near the small-amplitude frequency vector. The source presents it as a conjectural extension of the theorem under consideration; the supplied material does not establish its resolution.
