Convergence of iterative methods in perturbation theory

1995

We discuss iterative KAM type methods for eigenvalue problems in finite dimensions. We compare their convergence properties with those of straight forward power series expansions.

Domains of Convergence of Kam Type Iterations for Eigenvalue Problems

1999

The KAM technique was first introduced to deal with small denominator problems appearing in perturbation of invariant tori in classical mechanics [1, 2]. Similar methods were later applied to many different problems, like e.g. eigenvalue problems for time dependent problems in the Floquet representation [3, 4, 5, 6]. Most of the known results are valid for sufficiently small perturbation of some simple (integrable) system. The phenomena arising for large perturbations, in particular critical perturbations at which a given torus loses its stability, have been discussed in the framework of some approximate schemes inspired in renormalization group ideas [7, 8, 9]. In this framework, an iterat…

Convergence of KAM iterations for counterterm problems

1998

Abstract We analyse two iterative KAM methods for counterterm problems for finite-dimensional matrices. The starting point for these methods is the KAM iteration for Hamiltonians linear in the action variable in classical mechanics. We compare their convergence properties when a perturbation parameter is varied. The first method has no fixed points beyond a critical value of the perturbation parameter. The second one has fixed points for arbitrarily large perturbations. We observe different domains of attraction separated by Julia sets.
