Review text

This paper provides some more examples, concerning averaging effects for singularly perturbed nonlinear ODE. More precisely, the paper shows how weak convergence methods provide simple, elegant proofs of: {\parindent=0.7cm \begin{itemize}\item[(i)] the stabilization of an inverted pendulum under fast vertical oscillations, \item[(ii)] the existence of particle traps induced by rapidly varying electric fields and \item[(iii)] the adiabatic invariance of \(\int_\Gamma p dx\) for slowing varying planar Hamiltonian dynamics. To this end the Young measures are involved to document the adiabatic invariance of the volume within constant energy surfaces for slowly changing Hamiltonian systems, provided an appropriate ergodic type condition holds.NEWLINENEWLINE\end{itemize}}
