First Birkhoff, then Kolmogorov, Arnold and Moser observed the similarity of results for area-preserving and reversible maps (for instance, periodic orbits near a general elliptic fixed point). It is thus interesting where the two classes of maps differ. The author shows that there exist non-reversible elliptic real analytic area-preserving maps with eigenvalues not roots of unity. The proof, very well presented and detailed, uses (among other things) complexification and some results of Yoccoz (linearisation). Historical background of this type of problems is also presented.
