Review text

This note is about a deformation of the Hénon-Heiles system, i.e., a Hamiltonian system of Hénon-Heiles type, depending on one parameter in the coupling term. A numerical investigation is carried out of the evolution of caustics when the parameter varies, from regular to chaotic situations. Such caustics arise from projecting tori onto configuration space. The numerical study is based on a procedure which allows to determine the caustic surface using a single trajectory and the corresponding linear variational equations. The resulting diagrams are compared with those coming from the study of Poincaré sections and shown to provide additional information on surviving tori. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0847.00055].
