Скачать или смотреть Tutorial: KAM theory and the stability of the Solar System

This lecture explains what the famous Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM) theorem on perturbed integrable Hamiltonian system says, and gives an idea of its proof in the particular case of two-dimensional, area-preserving maps. One of the reasons for developing this theorem (but by far not its only application) is the question of the stability of our Solar System. We will discuss whether the KAM theorem has something to say on that - or not.
