Arnold's diffusion conjecture for nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems
Arnold's diffusion conjecture for nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems
Let be an integrable Hamiltonian on the action space, let be a generic perturbation, and consider the nearly integrable Hamiltonian
For any two points and on the connected level hypersurface of in the action space, Arnold's diffusion conjecture. there exist orbits of connecting an arbitrarily small neighborhood of the torus with an arbitrarily small neighborhood of the torus , provided that is sufficiently small and is generic.
This conjecture predicts large-scale drift in the action variables of nearly integrable systems with at least three degrees of freedom, beyond the confinement supplied by invariant KAM tori. The source presents it as Arnold's conjecture; its resolution status is not specified here.
