Generic Kerr bounded-phase-space diffusion conjecture

Define the bounded-motion region

B(C):={0<E2<1, Lz<C, 0<Q<CR(r)>0, R(r)<0}H1(12),\mathcal B(C):=\left\{0<E^2<1,\ |L_z|<C,\ 0<Q<C\mid -R(r^*)>0,\ -R(r_*)<0\right\}\cap H^{-1}\left(-\frac12\right),

where RR is the Kerr radial potential, rr^* is the local maximum of R-R, and rr_* is the local minimum of R-R to its right. Generic Kerr bounded-phase-space diffusion conjecture. For a generic stationary perturbation of the Kerr metric, for every δ>0\delta>0 and C>0C>0, an orbit exists that is δ\delta-dense on B(C)\mathcal B(C), provided ε\varepsilon is small. The same assertion holds for a generic perturbation that is 11-periodic in τ\tau.

This is the Kerr analogue of the conjectured dense-orbit statement for bounded Schwarzschild motions. It is motivated by applying Arnold diffusion to the Liouville-Arnold region, but the source gives no resolution evidence.
