Bifurcations of periodic orbits, subharmonic solutions and invariant Tori of high-dimensional systems (Q4239799)

The authors deal with the \(n\)-dimensional system \((1)_\varepsilon\) \(\dot x=f(x)+ \varepsilon g(t,x,\varepsilon)\) with \(x\in\mathbb{R}^n\), \(n\geq 2\), \(\varepsilon\) is a small parameter, \(f\) and \(g\) are \(C^r\)-functions, \(r\geq 3\), and \(g\) is \(T\)-periodic in \(t\). For the unperturbed system \((\varepsilon=0)\) the following conditions are imposed: (A1) \((1)_0\) has \((n-1)\) \(C^r\) first integrals \(H_i(x)\) such that for \(x\) in an open set \(U\subset\mathbb{R}^n\) the gradients \(DH_i(x)\) are linearly independent, (A2) there exists an open set \(V\subset\mathbb{R}^{n-1}\) such that for \(h\in V\) the set \(L_h:= \{x\in U; H(x)=h\}\) is compact in \(U\) and does not contain a critical point of \((1)_0\). The objective is to investigate bifurcation phenomena of \((1)_\varepsilon\) from the family \(\{L_h;h\in V\}\) of periodic orbits to \((1)_0\). The case \(g\) autonomous and the case \(g\) nonautonomous are studied.
