On two-dimensional area-preserving mappings with homoclinic tangencies. (Q1432575)

The authors consider \(C^r\)-smooth (\(r\geq 3\)) two-dimensional area-preserving diffeomorphisms \(f\) having a saddle fixed point \(O\) with multiplicators \(\lambda\) and \(\lambda^{-1}\), where \(|\lambda|<1\), and a nontransversal homoclinic orbit \(\Gamma\) at whose points the stable and unstable invariant manifolds of the saddle \(O\) have quadratic tangency. The case of \(\lambda>0\) is investigated with the aim to study the structure of the set \(N\) of trajectories lying entirely in a small neighborhood of the closure of a homoclinic orbit \(\Gamma\).
