We study the splitting of invariant manifolds of whiskered tori with two frequencies in nearly-integrable Hamiltonian systems, such that the hyperbolic part is given by a pendulum. We consider a two-dimensional torus with a fast frequency vector [Formula: see text], with ω = (1, Ω) where Ω is an irrational number of constant type, i.e. a number whose continued fraction has bounded entries. Applying the Poincaré–Melnikov method, we find exponentially small lower bounds for the maximal splitting distance between the stable and unstable invariant manifolds associated to the invariant torus, and we show that these bounds depend strongly on the arithmetic properties of the frequencies.

Whiskered Tori

We study the chaotic dynamics of a near-integrable Hamiltonian Ablowitz–Ladik lattice, which is N + 2-dimensional if N is even (N + 1, if N is odd) and possesses, for all N, a circle of unstable equilibria at ε = 0, whose homoclinic orbits are shown to persist for ε ≠ 0 on whiskered tori. The persistence of homoclinic orbits is established through Mel'nikov conditions, directly from the Hamiltonian structure of the equations. Numerical experiments which combine space portraits and Lyapunov exponents are performed for the perturbed Ablowitz–Ladik lattice and large scale chaotic behavior is observed in the vicinity of the circle of unstable equilibria in the ε = 0 case. We conjecture that this large scale chaos is due to the occurrence of saddle-center type fixed points in a perturbed 1 d.o.f Hamiltonian to which the original system can be reduced for all N. As ε > 0 increases, the transient character of this chaotic behavior becomes apparent as the positive Lyapunov exponents steadily increase and the orbits escape to infinity.
