TLDR
The main ideas of the proof of the exponential estimate were discussed in this paper, including steepness conditions and forbidden motions of the discs of fast drift on the steepness of the unperturbed Hamiltonian.

Positive measure of effective quasi-periodic motion near a Diophantine torus

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that there exists an open set of positive measure (in fact, the relative measure of the complement is exponentially small) around $\mathcal{T}_0$ such that the motion of all initial conditions in this set is "effectively" quasi-periodic in the sense that they are close to being quasiperiodic for an interval of time which is doubly exponentially long with respect to the inverse of the distance to

Quasi-effective stability for nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the definition of quasi-effective stability and prove a theorem on quasieffective stability under the======Russmann's non-degeneracy, which gives a relation between KAM theorem and effective stability.

Nekhoroshev theorem for the periodic Toda lattice

TL;DR: The periodic Toda lattice with $N$ sites is globally symplectomorphic to a two parameter family of $N-1$ coupled harmonic oscillators, and it is shown in this article that in the interior of the positive quadrant as well as in a neighborhood of the origin, the Toda Hamiltonian is strictly convex.
