Chap e 1
In oduc ion
This hesis conce ns abou global ins abili y in nea ly-in eg able Hamil onian sys ems,
also called “A nold di usion”. In [A n64], V.I. A nold p oposed an example o a nea ly-
in eg able Hamil onian wi h 2 + 1/2 deg ees o eedom
H(q, p, ϕ, I, ) = 1
2p2+I2+ε(cos q−1) (1 + µ(sin ϕ+ cos )) ,
and asse ed ha gi en any δ, K > 0, o any 0 < µ ε0, he e exis s a ajec o y o
his Hamil onian sys em such ha
I(0) < δ and I(T)> K o some ime T > 0.
No ice ha his a global ins abili y esul o he a iable I, since
˙
I=−∂H
∂ϕ =−εµ(cos q−1) cos ϕ
is ze o o ε= 0, so I emains cons an , whe eas Ican ha e a d i o ini e size o any
ε > 0 small enough.
A nold’s Hamil onian can be w i en as a nea ly-in eg able Hamil onian wi h 3 deg ees
o eedom
H∗(q, p, ϕ, I, s, A) = 1
2p2+I2+A+ε(cos q−1) (1 + µ(sin ϕ+ cos s)) ,
which o ε= 0 is an in eg able Hamil onian h(p, I, A) = 1
2(p2+I2) + A. Since hsa is ies
he (A nold) isoene ge ic non-degene acy

by he KAM heo em p o en by A nold in [A n63], he 5D phase space o His illed, up o

|k1ω1+k2ω2+k0| ≥ γ/|k|τ o any 0 6= (k1, k2, k0)∈Z,

whe e γ=O(√ε), and τ≥2.
Since he 3D KAM in a ian o i do no sepa a e he 5D phase space, he e can exis
i egula o bi s ‘ a eling’ be ween o i. A nold conjec u ed in he KAM heo em in 1963
ha his was he gene al case.
In he i s pa o his hesis we conside an a p io i uns able Hamil onian wi h 2+1/2
deg ees o eedom
Hε(p, q, I, ϕ, s) = ±p2
2+ cos q−1+I2
2+εh(q, ϕ, s) (1.1)
consis ing o a pendulum and a o o plus a ime pe iodic pe u ba ion h(q, ϕ, s).
A p io i uns able Hamil onian sys ems like he abo e one we e in oduced by [Loc92,
CG94]. They consis on a o o in he a iables (I, ϕ) as an in eg able Hamil onian in
ac ion-angle a iables, a pendulum in he a iables (p, q) which ca ies ou a sepa a ix
associa ed o a saddle poin , plus a small pe u ba ion o size ε. Fo ε= 0, Hamil onian
(1.1) is in eg able and, in pa icula , he ac ion Iis cons an . We wan o desc ibe he
global ins abili y in he a iable I o |ε|non-ze o bu o he wise a bi a y small.
Fo simplici y, we e e o global ins abili y in his pape simply as A nold di usion.
Ne e heless, i is wo h ema king ha o iginally he e m A nold di usion was coined
o a p io i s able Hamil onian sys ems, which a e pe u ba ions o in eg able Hamil onian
sys ems w i en in ac ion-angle a iable. See [Be 10] o a ca e ul exposi ion o a p io i
uns able and a p io i s able Hamil onian sys ems. Fo ins ance, eplacing V(q) by εV (q),
ou Hamil onian (1.1) becomes a p io i s able. In ha case, A nold di usion would con-
sis ing on inding ajec o ies wi h la ge de ia ions (p(T), I(T)) −(p(0), I(0)). This would
be a much mo e di icul p oblem ha he one conside ed he e, because one has o con on
o exponen ially small spli ing o in a ian mani olds wi h espec o he pa ame e εas
well as o he passage h ough double esonances in he ac ion a iables p, I. In pa icula ,
exponen ial la ge es ima es o he ime o di usion wi h espec o εdue o Nekho oshe
[Nek77, LM05, BM11] would apply.
The main cha ac e is ic o an a p io i uns able Hamil onian sys em wi h 2+1/2 deg ees
o eedom is ha he e exis s a 3D No mally Hype bolic In a ian Mani old (NHIM) which
is a la ge in a ian objec wi h 4D uns able and s able in a ian mani olds.
Inside his NHIM he e exis s an inne dynamics gi en by a Hamil onian sys em wi h
1+1/2 deg ees o eedom. This Hamil onian possesses 2D in a ian o i which p e en
global ins abili y inside he 3D NHIM.
Fo ε= 0, he s able and uns able in a ian mani old coincide along a huge sepa a ix
illed wi h homoclinic o bi s o he NHIM.
Fo small |ε| 6= 0, he uns able and s able mani olds o he NHIM in gene al do no
coincide, bu o he wise in e sec ans e sely along 3D homoclinic in a ian mani olds.
Th ough each poin on each 3D homoclinic mani old, he e exis s a homoclinic o bi which
begins in a poin o he NHIM and inishes on ano he poin o he NHIM, no necessa ily
he same one. This assignmen be ween an ini ial and he inal poin on he NHIM is called
he sca e ing map. In p ac ice, one mus selec an adequa e domain o any sca e ing
map.

Unde he ac ion o a sca e ing map, he a iable Ican inc ease (o dec ease). The
geome ic mechanism o global ins abili y consis s on looking o ajec o ies o he sca e -
ing map wi h a la ge change on he a iable I. S anda d shadowing a gumen s p o ide he
exis ence o nea by ajec o ies o Hamil onian (1.1) wi h a la ge change on he a iable I.
We a e going o assume ha he pe u ba ion h(q, ϕ, s) depends on wo ha monics in
he a iables (ϕ, s):
h(q, ϕ, s) = (q)g(ϕ, s),
(q) = cos q, g(ϕ, s) = a1cos(k1ϕ+l1s) + a2cos(k2ϕ+l2s),(1.2)
wi h k1, k2, l1, l2∈Z.
One o he main goals o his hesis is o p o e ha o any non- i ial pe u ba ion
a1a26= 0 depending on any wo independen ha monics k1k2
l1l26= 0, he e is global ins a-
bili y o he ac ion I o any ε > 0 small enough.
Ou i s esul is ha he global ins abili y happens o any a bi a y pe u ba ion
(1.2).
Theo em 1. Assume ha a1a26= 0 and k1l2−k2l16= 0 in Hamil onian (1.1)-(1.2). Then,
o any I∗>0, he e exis s ε∗=ε∗(I∗, a1, a2)>0such ha o any ε,0< ε < ε∗, he e
exis s a ajec o y (p( ), q( ), I( ), ϕ( )) such ha o some T > 0
I(0) ≤ −I∗< I∗≤I(T).
Rema k 2. Fo a ough es ima e o ε∗∼exp(−πI∗/2) a leas o |a1/a2|<0.625, k1=
l2= 1 and l1=k2= 0, and T=T(ε∗, I∗, a1, a2)∼(Ts(I∗, a1, a2)/ε) log(C(I∗, a1, a2)/ε) o
he di usion ime, see 2.4. Analogous es ima es could be ob ained o all he o he alues
o he pa ame e s.
The p oo is based on he geome ical me hod in oduced in [DLS06] and elies on he
conc e e compu a ion o se e al sca e ing maps. A sca e ing map is a map o ans e se
homoclinic o bi s o a NHIM. Fo Hamil onian (1.1), he NHIM u ns ou o be simply
˜
Λε=˜
Λ = (0,0, I, ϕ, s):(I, ϕ, s)∈R×T2.(1.3)
In he unpe u bed case, i.e., ε= 0, o any I∗>0 he NHIM ˜
Λ possesses a 4D sepa a ix,
ha is o say, coinciden s able and uns able in a ian mani olds
W0˜
Λ = (p0(τ), q0(τ), I, ϕ, s) : τ∈R, I ∈[−I∗, I∗],(ϕ, s)∈T2,
whe e (p0, q0) a e he sepa a ices o he saddle equilib ium poin o he pendulum
(p0( ), q0( )) = ±2
cosh ,4 a c an e± .
In he pe u bed case, i.e., o small ε > 0, Wu(˜
Λε) and Ws(˜
Λε) do no coincide ( his
is he so-called spli ing o sepa a ices), and e e y local ans e sal in e sec ion be ween

hem gi es ise o a (local) sca e ing map which is simply he co espondence be ween
a pas asymp o ic mo ion in he NHIM o he co esponding u u e asymp o ic mo ion

2+ cos q−1+I2

To inish he p oo o Theo em 1, in Sec ion 3.3 we will ske ch he modi ica ions needed
o he case ∈(0,1).
Sca e ing map ypes
By he de ini ion gi en a Sec ion 2.2.2, a sca e ing map is in p inciple only locally
de ined, ha is, o a small ball o alues o he a iables (I, ϕ, s) o (I, θ =ϕ−Is), since i
depends on a non-degene a e c i ical poin τ∗=τ∗(I, ϕ, s) o a eal unc ion (2.6), depend-
ing smoo hly on he a iables (I, ϕ, s), al eady in oduced in [DLS06]. In he s udy ca ied
ou in Sec ion 3.2, i will be desc ibed whe he , in e ms o he pa ame e µ:= a1/a2
and he a iable I, a local sca e ing map can o canno be smoo hly de ined o all he
alues o he angles (ϕ, s) o θ=ϕ−Is, becoming hus a global o ex ended sca e ing
map. This desc ip ion will depend essen ially on a geome ical cha ac e iza ion o he unc-
ion τ∗(I, ϕ, s) in e ms o he in e sec ion o c es s and NHIM lines, ollowing [DH11]. Any
degene a ion o he c i ical poin τ∗=τ∗(I, ϕ, s) may gi e ise o mo e non-degene a e c i -
ical poin s and a bi u ca ion o mul iple local sca e ing maps o o a non global sca e ing
map. Di e en c i ical poin s τ∗=τ∗(I, ϕ, s) gi e ise o di e en local sca e ing maps,
and pu ing oge he di e en local sca e ing maps, one can some imes ob ain piecewise
smoo h global sca e ing maps, which a e e y use ul o design pa hs o ins abili y o he
ac ion I, and a e simply called di usion pa hs.
Fo ins ance, in Chap e 2 de o ed o he Hamil onian (1.6), i will be p o en ha
o 0 < µ =a1/a2<0.625, he e exis wo di e en global sca e ing maps. Among
he di e en kinds o associa ed o bi s o hese sca e ing maps, he e will appea wo o
hem called highways, whe e he d i o he ac ion Iwas e y as and simple. As will be
desc ibed in Sec ion 3.2, such highways do no appea o Hamil onian (1.7). Ne e heless,
as will be p o en in Sec ion 3.4, he e exis piecewise smoo h global sca e ing maps, and
he possible di usion along he discon inui y se s opens he possibili y o applying he
heo y o piecewise smoo h dynamical sys ems [Fil88].
Abou he model chosen and ela ed wo k
Hamil onian (1.1) is a s anda d example o an a p io i uns able Hamil onian sys-
em [CG94] o med by a pendulum, a o o and a pe u ba ion. I is usual in he li e a u e

L(I, ϕ, s) = Z+∞
−∞
( (q0(σ))g(ϕ+Iσ, s +σ; 0) − (0)g(ϕ+Iσ, s +σ; 0)) dσ.
Then, o 0<|ε|small enough, he e exis s a unique ans e sal homoclinic poin ˜z o ˜
Λε,
which is ε-close o he poin ˜z∗(I, ϕ, s) = (p0(τ∗), q0(τ∗), I, ϕ, s)∈W0(˜

˜z= ˜z(I, ϕ, s) = (p0(τ∗) + O(ε), q0(τ∗) + O(ε), I, ϕ, s)∈Wu(˜
Λε) Ws(˜
Λε).(2.7)
The unc ion Lis called he Melniko po en ial o Hamil onian (1.1). In ou case, om
(2.2) and (2.3)
L(I, ϕ, s) = A00 +A10(I) cos ϕ+A01 cos s, (2.8)
whe e
A00 = 4 a00, A10(I) = 2π I a10

sinh(π
2).(2.9)
Fig. 2.3: The Melniko po en ial, µ=a10/a01 = 0.6 and I= 1.
We now look o he c i ical poin s o (2.6) which indeed a e he solu ions o
∂L
∂τ (I, ϕ −Iτ, s −τ) = 0.
Equi alen ly, τ∗=τ∗(I, ϕ, s) sa is ies
I A10(I) sin(ϕ−I τ∗) + A10 sin(s−τ∗) = 0.(2.10)
F om a geome ical iew-poin , o any (I, ϕ, s)∈[−I∗, I∗]×T2, inding τ∗=τ∗(I, ϕ, s)
sa is ying (2.10) is equi alen o looking o he ex ema o Lon he NHIM line

15
which co esponds o he unpe u bed ajec o y o Hamil onian H0 h ough (I, ϕ, s) along
he unpe u bed NHIM.
Thus we can de ine he sca e ing map as in [DH11]. Le Wbe an open subse o
[−I∗, I∗]×T2such ha he map
(I, ϕ, s)∈W7→ τ∗(I, ϕ, s),
whe e τ∗(I, ϕ, s) is a c i ical poin o (2.6) o , equi alen ly, a solu ion o (2.10), is well de-
ined and C2. The e o e, he e exis s a unique ˜zsa is ying (2.7). Le Γ = {˜z(I, ϕ, s;ε),(I, ϕ, s)∈
W}. Fo any ˜z∈Γ he e exis unique ˜x+,−= ˜x+,−(I, ϕ, s;ε)∈˜
Λεsuch ha ˜z∈
Ws
ε(˜x−)∩Wu
ε(˜x+). Le
H+,−=[{˜x+,−(I, ϕ, s;ε),(I, ϕ, s)∈W}.
We de ine he sca e ing map associa ed o Γ as he map
S:H−−→ H+
˜x−7−→ S(˜x−) = ˜x+.
By he geome ic p ope ies o he sca e ing map (i is an exac symplec ic map
[DLS08]) we ha e, see [DH09] and [DH11], ha he sca e ing map has he explici o m
S(I, ϕ, s) = I+ε∂L∗
∂ϕ (I, ϕ, s) + O(ε2), ϕ −ε∂L∗
∂I (I, ϕ, s) + O(ε2), s,(2.12)
whe e
L∗(I, ϕ, s) = L(I, ϕ −I τ∗(I, ϕ, s), s −τ∗(I, ϕ, s)).(2.13)
The new a iable θ=ϕ−Is
No ice ha i τ∗(I, ϕ, s) is a c i ical poin o (2.6), τ∗(I, ϕ, s)−σis a c i ical poin
o
τ7−→ L(I, ϕ −I(τ+σ), s −(τ+σ)) = L(I, ϕ −Iσ −Iτ, s −σ−τ).(2.14)
Since τ∗(I, ϕ −Iσ, s −σ) is a c i ical poin o he igh hand side o (2.14), by he
uniqueness in Wwe can conclude ha
τ∗(I, ϕ −Iσ, s −σ) = τ∗(I, ϕ, s)−σ. (2.15)
Thus, by (2.13),
L∗(I, ϕ −Iσ, s −σ) = L(I, ϕ −Iσ −I(τ∗−σ), s −σ−τ∗)
=L(I, ϕ −Iτ∗, s −τ∗) = L∗(I, ϕ, s),
16
and, in pa icula o σ=s,
L∗(I, ϕ −Is, 0) = L∗(I, ϕ, s).
In oducing he new a iable
θ=ϕ−Is,
we de ine he Reduced Poinca ´e unc ion
L∗(I, θ) := L∗(I, ϕ −Is, 0) = L∗(I, ϕ, s).(2.16)
We can w i e he sca e ing map on he a iables (I, θ). F om (I0, ϕ0, s0) = S(I, ϕ, s),
we ha e ha

=θ−ε∂L∗
∂I (I, ϕ, s) + ∂L∗
∂ϕ (I, ϕ, s)s+O(ε2).
Since ∂L∗

∂I (I, θ)−s∂L∗

∂ϕ =∂L∗

we conclude ha
θ0=θ−ε∂L∗

Then, in he a iables (I, θ), he sca e ing map akes he simple o m

•Case 2 No e ha o 0.625 ≤ |µ|<0.97

We conside he same cha ac e iza ion used in Chap e 2:

ξm(I, ϕ) = a csin(µα(I) sin ϕ) + πmod 2π.
•Fo |α(I)|>1/|µ|, he e a e wo e ical c es s ϕ=ηM,m(I, σ)

ηM(I, σ) = −a csin(sin σ/ (µα(I))) mod 2π
ηm(I, σ) = a csin(sin σ/ (µα(I))) + πmod 2π.
Rema k 39. |α(I)|= 1/|µ|is a singula o bi u ca ion case. In his case, he c es s a e

Rema k 40. The c es con aining he poin (ϕ, σ) = (0,0) will be deno ed by CM(I) and
he c es con aining he poin (ϕ, σ) = (π, π) by Cm(I).
No e ha he unc ion |α(I)|is no bounded, indeed
lim

This implies ha o any µ he e exis s a neighbo hood Uo I= 1 such ha o all I∈U

Now ake a look a he p ope ies o he unc ion α(I) in oduced in (3.19) o desc ibe

lim
I→1−α(I) = −∞ and lim

52
Gi en a µ6= 0, since α(0) = 0, he e exis s a unique Ic∈(0,1) such ha |α(I)|= 1/|µ|.
So, he c es s a e ho izon al o I∈[0, Ic) and e ical o I∈(Ic,1).
O he s impo an limi s a e
lim
I→−∞ α(I) = exp(π/2) and lim
I→+∞α(I) = exp(−π/2).
The i s limi implies ha |α(I)|<exp(π/2) o I∈(−∞,0). Thus, i exp(π/2) ≤1/|µ|
he c es s a e ho izon al o I∈(−∞,0). O he wise, i 1/|µ|<exp(π/2), he e exis s a
unique Il∈(−∞,0) such ha |α(I)|= 1/|µ|and he c es s a e e ical o I∈(−∞, Il)
and ho izon al o I∈(Il,0).
The second limi implies ha |α(I)|>exp(−π/2) o I∈(1,+∞). Then, i exp(−π/2) ≥
1/|µ|, he c es s a e e ical o I∈[1,+∞). i exp(−π/2) <1/|µ|, he e exis s a
unique I ∈(1,+∞), such ha he c es s a e e ical o any Iin [1, I ) and ho izon-

Summa izing, o 1/|µ| ≥ exp(π/2), c es s a e ho izon al o I∈(−∞, Ic)∪(I ,+∞)
and e ical o I∈(Ic, I ). Fo exp(−π/2) <1/|µ|<exp(π/2), c es s a e ho izon al o
I∈(Il, Ic)∪(I ,+∞) and e ical o I∈(−∞, Il)∪(Ic, I ). Finally, i 1/|µ|<exp(−π/2),
c es s a e ho izon al o I∈(Il, Ic) and e ical o I∈(−∞, Il)∪(Ic,+∞).
Rema k 41. Fo ∈(0,1), α (I) (3.20) is no bounded on a neighbo hood o he esonance
I= 1/ , i.e., limI→1/ −α (I) = −∞ and limI→1/ +α (I)=+∞. The same beha io akes
place o = 1 and close o I= 1. On he o he hand, o I→ ±∞,α (I) has he same
beha io as in he case o = 0, limI→±∞ α (I) = 0. This implies ha o any alue o

Example To illus a e his discussion, we p esen a conc e e example. Taking µ= 0.5,
we ha e exp(−π/2) <1/µ = 2 <exp(π/2). In his case we ha e Il≈ −1.807, Ic≈0.701
and I ≈1.367. The c es s a e ho izon al in (−1.807,0.701) ∪(1,367,+∞) and e ical in

Now, we a e going o ocus on he ans e sali y o he in e sec ion be ween NHIM lines

We ob ain I= 3/2, so θ−Iτ∗

We ha e θ∗=πI and θ−Iτ∗

In his sec ion we a e going o comple e ou goal p o ing he exis ence o global ins a-

i.e.,

m(M)(I, ϕ, π) = S−µ
M(m)(I, ϕ, 0) = S−µ
M(m)(I, θ)
P oo . Fi s , we look o τ∗

Besides, τ∗sa is ies

We ha e ha ϕ−π−(I−1)τ∗
m(mod 2π) = ξm(I, ϕ −Iτ∗

Then, o each τ∗

This implies
3π
2< ϕ −(I−1)τ∗
m+ 2πK and ϕ−(I−1)τ∗

The e o e,

We can conclude ha ϕ−(I−1)τ∗
m(mod 2π) = ξM(I, ϕ −Iτ∗

=L∗

Since L∗

Sµ
m(I, ϕ, π) = S−µ
M(I, ϕ, 0) = S−µ
M(I, θ).
F om now on, jus o simpli y he exposi ion, a1and a2a e conside ed posi i e. The

Since I= 0 and I= 1 a e esonance alues, he applica ion o he inne map mus be

Conside he esonan egion associa ed o I= 0. In such egion, he o i can be

and since L∗(I, θ) = A1(I) cos(θ−Iτ∗(I, θ)) + A2(I) cos(θ−(I−1)τ∗(I, θ)), we ha e he

No e ha i |I|>O(ε), ∂F0/∂I domina es ∂F0/∂θ, so he Poisson b acke abo e can

Expanding sin(θ−Iτ∗) in Taylo ’s se ies a ound I= 0, we ha e
sin(θ−Iτ∗) = sin θ+O(I),
which implies {F0,L∗}= 0 i , and only i , θ≈0, π, assuming ha O(I) is small enough.
Now, we conside I=O(ε) and look a he in e sec ions be ween he NHIM lines and

sin(θ−Iτ∗) = sin θ+O(I) cos(θ−Iτ∗) = cos θ+O(I)
sin(θ−(I−1)τ∗) = O(I) cos(θ−(I−1)τ∗) = −1 + O(I).
This implies

Plugging hese exp essions in (3.30), we se

Applying he same me hodology, we ob ain an analogous esul o he o he esonan

We now sugges a new c i e ion o choose τ∗: o ake he minimal alue o |τ∗| o

Besides, he zones whe e he alue o Iis inc eased o dec eased unde he sca e ing

In Fig. 3.7, o egions I (0 < θ < π/2), II (π/2< θ < 3π/2) and III (3π/2< θ < 2π)

F om (4.6), i is o e i y ha Aiis an e en unc ion, and he e o e,

F om (4.12) and (4.12), τ∗(I, θ) is he solu ion o

Analogously, τ∗(−I, θ) is he solu ion o

No e ha he abo e equa ion can be w i en as

F om he local uniqueness o he solu ion o (4.18) and (4.19) we can conclude
τ∗
j(I, θ) = −τ∗
−j(−I, θ), so τ∗
0(I, θ) = −τ∗
0(−I, θ) Applying his equali y in (4.17),
we ob ain
L∗
0(−I, θ) = A1cos(θ1−ω1τ∗
0(I, θ)) + A2cos(θ2−ω2τ∗

0(I, θ)).
The e o e, L∗

Le (I+, θ+) = S0(I, θ) and (I−, θ−) = S−1

we ha e

∂I (I, θ) + O(ε2).
On he o he hand, i is easy o e i y ha S−1
0(−I, θ) is
I−=−I+ (−ε)∂L∗
0
∂θ (−I, θ) + O(ε2) and θ−=θ−(−ε)∂L∗
0
∂I (−I, θ) + O(ε2).
Now, we use he ac ha L∗
0(I, θ) = L∗
0(−I, θ), and so
I−=−I+ (−ε)∂L∗
0
∂θ (I, θ) + O(ε2) = −I+
θ−=θ−(−ε)−∂L∗
0
∂I (I, θ)+O(ε2) = θ+.
b) Analogously o he abo e case, τ∗(I, 2π−θ) is he solu ion o
ω1A1sin(2π−θ1−ω1τ) + ω2A2sin(2π−θ2−ω2τ) + A3sin(−τ)=0.
79
O , equi alen ly,
ω1A1sin(θ1−ω1(−τ)) + ω2A2sin(θ2−ω2(−τ)) + A3sin(−(−τ)) = 0.
This implies τ∗(I, θ) = −τ∗(I, 2π−θ).
As he ela ed sca e ing map depends on which in e al he unc ion τ∗(I, θ) belongs,
we can w i e τ∗
j(I, θ) = −τ∗
−j(I, 2π−θ), j∈Z. The e o e, we ha e τ∗
0(I, θ) =
−τ∗
0(I, 2π−θ). Using his equali y and he 2πpe iodici y o he cosine,
L∗
0(I, 2π−θ) = A1cos(−θ1+ω1τ∗
0(I, θ)) + A2cos(−θ2+ω2τ∗
0(I, θ)) + A3cos(τ∗
0(I, θ))
=A1cos(θ1−ω1τ∗
0(I, θ)) + A2cos(θ2−ω2τ∗
0(I, θ)) + A3cos(−τ∗
0(I, θ))

0(I, θ).
Le (I+, θ+) = S0(I, 2π−θ) and (I−, θ−) = S−1
0(I, θ), whe e S−1

o he sca e ing map. We wan o p o e I−=I+and θ+= 2π−θ−.
F om (4.9) we ha e

0
∂θ (I, θ)+O(ε2)

∂θ (I, θ) + O(ε2) = I−.
In he same way,

0
∂I (I, 2π−θ) + O(ε2)
= 2π−θ−(−ε)∂L∗

∂I (I, θ) + O(ε2)= 2π−θ−.
