In this paper we prove that for a class of nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems there is an orbit which contains these KAM tori in its $\\omega$-limit set. This implies that the closure of the orbit has almost full measure in the phase space. As byproduct, we show that KAM tori are Lyapunov unstable. The proof relies in the recent developments in the study of Arnold diffusion in nearly integrable systems Bernard-Kaloshin-Zhang, Kaloshin-Zhang12. It is a combination of geometric and variational techniques.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-12-22T18:36:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37J40", "37J50" ], "keywords": [ "kam tori", "integrable systems accumulating", "integrable hamiltonian system", "dimensional invariant tori carrying quasiperiodic", "invariant tori carrying quasiperiodic dynamics" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1412.7088G" } } }
