Review text

\textit{M. Guzzo} and \textit{G. Benettin} [Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst., Ser. B 1, 1-28 (2001; Zbl 0990.37045)] have shown that in a nondegenerate, nearly integrable Hamiltonian system, the Fourier spectrum of solutions in the regime of validity of Nekhoroshev's theorem possesses a characteristic band structure, which can easily be detected numerically. In this work, the author extends these results to systems with an intrinsically degenerate integrable part. Due to the degeneracy of two-body problem, such systems are of a particular interest in celestial mechanics. The results provide an efficient numerical method to prove the long-term stability of chaotic solutions, and are illustrated by considering a particular model system.
