For every manifold of dimension greater than or equal to three, we exhibit a local mechanism (blender-horseshoes) generating diffeomorphisms with $C^1$-robust homoclinic tangencies. Using blender-horseshoes, we prove that homoclinic classes of $C^1$-generic diffeomorphisms containing saddles with different indices and that do not admit dominated splittings (of appropriate dimensions) display $C^1$-robust homoclinic tangencies.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-09-22T18:42:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37C05", "37C20", "37C25", "37C29", "37C70" ], "keywords": [ "robust homoclinic tangency", "generic diffeomorphisms containing saddles", "appropriate dimensions", "dimension greater", "hyperbolic set" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 39, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0909.4062B" } } }
