Homoclinic orbits to parabolic points (Q1364599): Difference between revisions

This paper concerns non-Hamiltonian perturbations of Hamiltonian systems. Using Poincaré-Melnikov method, orbits which are homoclinic to degenerate periodic orbits of parabolic type are studied, specially the existence of transversal homoclinic points. The method used in this paper is related to a work of \textit{E. Fontich} in 1994, together with different estimates developed here. An interesting concrete example with numerical computations is included.
