AbstractThis paper contributes several results on weak KAM theory for time-periodic Tonelli Lagrangian systems. Wang and Yan [Commun. Math. Phys. 309 (2012), 663-691] introduced a new kind of Lax-Oleinik type operator associated with any time-periodic Tonelli Lagrangian. Firstly, using the new operator we give an equivalent definition of the backward weak KAM solution. Then we prove a result on the asymptotic behavior of the new operators with an arbitrary continuous function as initial condition, by taking advantage of the definition mentioned above. Finally, for a specific class of time-periodic Tonelli Lagrangians, we discuss the rate of convergence of the new operators.

This chapter explores perturbation aspects of the weak Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM) theory. By perturbative weak KAM theory, we mean two things. How do the weak KAM solutions and the Mather, Aubry, and Mañé sets respond to limits of the Hamiltonian? How do the weak KAM solutions change when we perturb a system, in particular, what happens when we perturb (1) completely integrable systems, and (2) autonomous systems by a time-periodic perturbation? The chapter states and proves results in both aspects, as a technical tool for proving forcing equivalence. It derives a special Lipshitz estimate of weak KAM solutions for perturbations of autonomous systems. The proof relies on semi-concavity of weak KAM solution.
