Abstract
We consider a renormalization group transformation \(\) for analytic Hamiltonians in two or more dimensions, and use this transformation to construct invariant tori, as well as sequences of periodic orbits with rotation vectors approaching that of the invariant torus. The construction of periodic and quasiperiodic orbits is limited to near-integrable Hamiltonians. But as a first step toward a non-perturbative analysis, we extend the domain of \(\) to include any Hamiltonian for which a certain non-resonance condition holds.

Renormalization-group analysis for the transition to chaos in Hamiltonian systems

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the stability of Hamiltonian systems in classical mechanics with two degrees of freedom by renormalization-group methods, and showed that the break-up of invariant tori is a universal mechanism.

On the renormalization of Hamiltonian flows, and critical invariant tori

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed a renormalization group transformation for partially analytic Hamiltonians, with emphasis on what seems to be needed for the construction of non-integrable fixed points.

Renormalization and destruction of 1/γ2 tori in the standard nontwist map

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extended the work of del-Castillo-Negrete, Greene, and Morrison on the standard nontwist map and studied the breakup of an invariant torus with winding number equal to the inverse golden mean squared.

A method for determining a stochastic transition

TL;DR: In this article, the existence of a KAM surface is assumed to be associated with a sudden change from stability to instability of nearby periodic orbits, which is consistent with all that is known, strongly supported by numerical results.
