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.

Heisenberg's picture and non commutative geometry of the semi classical limit in quantum mechanics

TL;DR: In this article, a non-commutative geometry framework is proposed to control the semi-classique limit in phase space, leading to uniform estimates of Nekhoroshev's type, as Planck's constant tends to zero.

Normalization of a Hamiltonian system near an invariant cycle or torus

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce the normal form of a linear Hamiltonian system with periodic coefficients and the neighbourhood of an invariant torus, and a system with two degrees of freedom.

Effective stability of the Trojan asteroids

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the spatial circular restricted problem of three bodies in the light of Nekhoroshev theory of stability over large time intervals and proved that stability over the age of the universe is guaranteed on a realistic region, big enough to include one real asteroid.

An example of Arnold diffusion for near-integrable Hamiltonians

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple mechanical system exhibiting Arnold diffusion was presented, which can be interpreted as ray propagation in a periodic optical medium with a near-constant index of refraction.
