Hyperbolic properties of four-dimensional symplectic mappings with a structurally unstable trajectory homoclinic to a fixed point of the saddle-focus type (Q5951231): Difference between revisions

The paper considers a 4-dimensional symplectic diffeomorphism \(F\) of \(C^r\) class \((r\geq 4)\) with a fixed point of saddle-focus type \(O\); its invariant manifolds have simplest tangency on some homoclinic trajectory \(\Gamma\). Let \(U\) be a sufficiently small neighbourhood of \(O\cup \Gamma\) and \(N(F)\) be the set of trajectories of \(F\) entirely lying in \(U\). It is shown under suitable assumptions on \(F\) that \(N\) contains a nontrivial nonuniformly hyperbolic subset \(\widetilde{N}\) that can be described in terms of symbolic dynamics.
