The geometry of nondegeneracy conditions
in completely integrable systems
NICOLAS
ROY(1)
ABSTRACT. 2014 Nondegeneracy conditions need to be imposed in K.A.M.
theorems to insure that the set of diophantine tori has a large measure.
Although they are usually expressed in action coordinates, it is possible
to give a geometrical formulation using the notion of regular completely integrable systems defined by a fibration of a symplectic manifold by la- grangian tori together with a Hamiltonian function constant on the fibers.
In this paper, we give a geometrical definition of different nondegeneracy conditions, we show the implication relations that exist between them,
and we show the uniqueness of the fibration for non-degenerate Hamilto-
nians.
RÉSUMÉ. 2014 Dans les théorèmes de type K.A.M., on doit imposer des
conditions de non-dégénérescence pour assurer que l’ensemble des tores
diophantiens a une grande mesure. Elles sont habituellement présentées
en coordonnées actions, mais il est possible d’en donner une formulation géométrique en considérant des systèmes complètement intégrables définis
par la donnée d’une fibration d’une variété symplectique par des tores
lagrangiens et d’un Hamiltonien constant sur les fibres. Dans cet article,
nous donnons une définition géométrique de différentes conditions de non-
dégénérescence, nous montrons les différentes relations d’implication qui
existent entre elles, et nous montrons l’unicité de la fibration pour les Hamiltoniens non-dégénérés.

706 Introduction
On a
symplectic
manifold(M, w),
thecompletely integrable systems (CI
in
short)
are thedynamical systems
definedby
a Hamiltonian H E C°°(M) admitting
a momentum map, i.e. a set A =(Al,
...,Ad) :
M -
R d
of smoothfunctions, d being
half of the dimension ofM, satisfy- ing {Aj, HI -
0and {Aj, Ak} =
0 for allj, k : 1... d,
and whose differentialsdAj
arelinearly independent
almosteverywhere. Then,
the Arnol’d-Mineur- Liouville Theorem[?, ?, ?]
insures that in aneighborhood
of any connectedcomponent
of anycompact regular
fiberA-1 (a),
a eRd,
there exists afibration in
lagrangian
torialong
which H is constant. These tori are thus invariantby
thedynamics generated by
the associated Hamiltonian vector fieldXH.
Despite
the "local" character of the Arnol’d-Mineur-LiouvilleTheorem,
one
might
betempted
totry
toglue together
these "local" fibrations in the case ofregular Hamiltonians,
i.e. those for which thereexists,
neareach
point
ofM,
a local fibration in invariantlagrangian
tori.Nevertheless,
we would like to stress the fact that not all
regular completely integrable
Hamiltonians are constant
along
the fibers of a fibration inlagrangian
tori.For
example,
a freeparticle moving
on thesphere S2
can be describedby
aHamiltonian
system
on thesymplectic
manifoldT* S2.
If we restrict ourself to thesymplectic
manifold M =T*S’2 B S2,
we caneasily
show that Mis
diffeomorphic
to SO(3)
x R and that the Hamiltonian Hdepends only
on the second factor. The energy levels H = cst are thus
diffeomorphic
toSO
(3).
On the otherhand,
if there exists a fibration inlagrangian
tori suchthat H is constant
along
thefibers,
then each energy level is itself fiberedby
tori. But asimple homotopy
groupargument
shows that there exists nofibration of ,S’O
(3) by
tori.This
example actually belongs
to thenon-generic (within
the class ofregular
CIHamiltonians)
class ofdegenerate
Hamiltonians. Those Hamil- toniansmight
not admit any(global)
fibration inlagrangian tori,
orthey might
admit several different ones.But,
as we will see,imposing
a non-degeneracy
condition insures that there exists aglobal
fibration of M inlagrangian
torialong
which H isconstant,
and moreover that it isunique.
On the other
hand, nondegeneracy
conditions arise in the K.A.M.theory
where one studies the small
perturbations
H + 03B5K of agiven
CI Hamilto- nian H. The K.A.M. Theorem deals with theregular part
of acompletely
integrable system
and isusually expressed
inangle-action
coordinates. This theoremactually gives
twoindependent
statements. The first statement is that the tori on whichXH
verifies a certaindiophantine
relation areonly
slightly
deformed and notdestroyed by
theperturbation 03B5K, provided E
issufficiently
small. The second statement is that the set of these tori has alarge
mesure whenever H isnon-degenerate.
There exist different K.A.M. theorems based on different
nondegene-
racy
conditions,
such as the earliest ones of Arnol’d[?]
andKolmogorov [?],
or those introduced laterby Bryuno [?]
and Rüssmann[?]. They
arealways presented
inaction-angle
coordinates and this hides somehow theirgeometrical
content. Butthey
can beexpressed
in ageometric
way if weconsider CI
systems
defined on asymplectic
manifold Mby
a fibration in la-grangian
toriM 1 B,
where B is anymanifold, together
with a Hamiltonian H e C°°(M)
constantalong
the fibers7r-’ (b), b
E B. Such a Hamiltonian must have the form H = F o 03C0, with F E C°°(B),
and all thenondegener-
acy conditions express
simply
in function of F and of a torsion-free and flat connection whichnaturally
exists on the base space B of the fibration.In the first
section,
we review thegeometric
structures associated witha fibration in
lagrangian
tori that allow one to define the connection onthe base space. In Section
2,
wegive
severalnondegeneracy conditions, including
those mentionnedabove, expressed
both in ageometric
way and in flat coordinates.Then,
we show in Section 3 the differentimplication
relations that exist between these different conditions.
Finally,
in the lastsection,
wegive
someproperties
ofnon-degenerate
CIhamiltonians,
as forexample
theuniqueness
of the fibration inlagrangian
tori.1. Geometric
setting
Let
(M, 03C9)
be asymplectic
manifold of dimension 2d and(H, M 03C0 ~ B)
aregular
CIsystem composed
of a fibration inlagrangian
toriMB together
with a Hamiltonian H e
C~(M)
constantalong
the fibersMb
=7r-’ (b), b
E B. Sinceby
definition the fibers areconnected, H
mustbe of the form H =
Fo7r,
with F E C°°(B).
On the otherhand,
Duistermaat showed in[?]
that there exists a natural torsion-free and flat connection ~on the base space B of each fibration in
lagrangian
tori. It can be seen asfollows.
First of
all,
a theorem due to Weinstein[?, ?]
insures that there existsa natural torsion-free and flat connection on each leaf of a
lagrangian
folia-tion.
Moreover,
whenever this foliation defineslocally
afibration,
then theholonomy
of the connection must vanish. Given a fibration inlagrangian
tori(H,MB) the space Vo (Mb)
of parallel
vector fields on Mb
= 7r-1 (b),
for each b e
B,
is thus a vector space of dimensiond,
and the union708
Ubes Vv (Mb)
isactually
endowed with a structure of a smooth vector bundle over B.On the other
hand,
since each fiberMb
is astandard’
affinetorus,
onecan define for each b E B the space
039Bb
CVv (Mb)
of1-periodic paral-
lel vector fields on
Mb,
which iseasily
shown to be a lattice ofVv (Mb).
Moreover,
one can show that the union A =Ubes Ab is a
smooth lattice subbundle ofUb~B Vv (Mb),
called theperiod
bundle. This is in fact thegeometrical
content of the Arnol’d-Mineur-Liouville Theorem[?, ?, ?].
Toprove
this,
one constructsexplicitly
smooth sections ofUbes Vv (Mb)
whichare
1-periodic, namely
Hamiltonian vector fieldsX03B6o03C0
whose Hamiltonian is thepullback
of afunction 03B6
e C°°(M)
of aspecial type
called action.Now,
thesymplectic
form on Mprovides
for each b anisomorphism
betweenVv (Mb)
andTb*B.
Theimage
of the bundle Aby
thisisomorphism
is then asmooth lattice subbundle E*
of T*B,
called the Actionbundle,
and its dual E(called
the Resonancebundle)
is a smooth lattice subbundle of TB. This lattice subbundle Eprovides
a way to associate thetangent
spacesTbB
forneighboring points
b. This thusimplies
the existence of a naturalinteger,
torsion-free and flat connection V on the base space B
(as
discoveredby
Duistermaat
[?]). Actually, angle-action
coordinates aresemi-global
canon-ical coordinates
(x, ç) : 03C0-1 (0) -* 1rd
xRd,
where O is an open subset ofB,
with theproperties
that thexj’s
are flat(with respect
to Weinstein’sconnection)
coordinates on thetori,
and the differentialsdçj
are smoothsections of the Action bundle E*
(this implies
that thecoordinates çj
areflat with
respect
to Duistermaat’s connection onB).
In the
sequel,
the space ofparallel
vector fields will be denotedby Vv (B)
and the space of
parallel
1-formsby S2ô (L3).
We mention that ingeneral
theholonomy
of Duistermaat’s connection does not vanish. As a consequence, the spacesVv (B)
andS2ô (B) might
beempty. Nevertheless,
when one workslocally
in asimply
connected subset O cB,
the spaces of localparallel
sections
Vv (0)
and03A91~ (0)
are d-dimensional vector spaces.2. Diffèrent
nondegeneracy
conditionsLet
(H, MB)
be aregular
CIsystem composed
of a fibration inlagrangian
toriM 1
Btogether
with a Hamiltonian H e C°°(M)
constantalong
the fibers. As mentionnedbefore,
H is of the form H = F o 7r, with F e C°°(B).
It turns out that all thenondegeneracy
conditions can beexpressed
in terms of the function F and Duistermaat’s connection V whichnaturally
exists on B. On the otherhand,
these conditions are local : F is said to benon-degenerate
if isnon-degenerate
at each b E B.Moreover,
some ofthese conditions are
expressed
in terms of the space ofparallel
vector fieldsVo (B),
but the local character of thenondegeneracy
conditions means thatone needs
actually only
the spacesVo (0)
of localparallel
vector fields ina
neighborhood
0 c B of eachpoint b
e B. We will use aslight
misuse oflanguage
and say "for each X eVv (8)"
instead of "for each b eB,
eachneighborhood
O c B of b and each X eVv (O)".
For our purposes, let’s define for each X e
Vo (B)
the functionÇ2x e
C°°(B) by Ç2x - dF (X)
and the associated resonance setWe will also denote
by
K =Ub Kb
theintegrable
distribution ofhyper- planes Kb
CTbB tangent
to thehypersurfaces
F =cst,
i.e.Kb
= kerdF|b.
The Hessian
B7B7 F,
which is a(0,2)-tensor
field on8,
will be denotedby Fil.
It issymmetric
since ~ is torsion-free. The connection ~yields
alsoan identification of the
cotangent
spacesT*bB
atneighboring points b and
allows to define the
frequency
map p : 8 -*Ç2’ (3) by
p(b)
=dF~b,
wheredFb
eÇ2’ (B)
is theparallel
1-form which coincides with dF at thepoint
b. In the
sequel,
theexpression
A oc B means that the vectors A and B arelinearly dependent.
We now review different
nondegeneracy conditions, including
those usedin the literature. We
give
both ageometrical
formulation and the corre-sponding (usual)
formulation in flat coordinates.Condition
"Kolmogorov" :
For each b EB,
theHessian,
seen as a linearmap
Fb’ : Tb8 -* T*bB,
isinvertible,
i.eIn flat
coordinates,
this condition reads :Condition
"Locally diffeomorphic frequency map" :
Thefrequency
map is a local
diffeomorphism.
In flatcoordinates,
this condition means that themap ~: 03B6j
eIlgd
~9F ~ Rd is
a localdiffeomorphism.
710
Condition
"Iso-energetic"
or "Arnol’d" : For each b E B the restriction toJ’Cb (for
the twoslots)
of the HessianF"|kb : Kb ~ K*
isinvertible,
i.e.In flat
coordinates,
this condition reads :Condition
"Bryuno" :
For each b EB,
the set of vectors X ETbB
satis-fying ~X~F
oc dF is1-dimensionnal,
i.e. :This amounts to
requiring
that for eachb,
the linear map U :TbB~R~ T*b B
defined
by
has a rank
equal
to d. In flatcoordinates,
this condition reads :Condition "N" : For each b e
B,
the restriction toKb (for
the firstslot)
of the Hessian
F"|kh : JCb
~T*bB
isinjective,
i.e. :This is
equivalent
torequiring
that for eachb,
the linear map V :TbB ~ Tb B
~ R definedby
has a rank
equal
to d. In flatcoordinates,
this condition reads :Condition
"Turning frequencies" :
Let P(Ç2’ (B))
denote theprojec-
tive space of
Ç2’ (B)
and 7r :Ç2’ (B)
~ P(Qi (B))
the associated pro-jection.
Werequire
the map 7r o cp : B ~ P(Qi (B))
to be a submer-sion. In flat
coordinates,
this condition amounts torequiring
that the map7r o p :
Rd
~ P(Rd)
definedby 03B6
~ÊF (03B6)]
is a submersion.Condition
"Iso-energetic turning frequencies" :
The restriction of thefrequency
map p : B -*Ç2’ (B)
to each energy levelSE
={b| F (b)
=E}
is a local
diffeomorphism
7r o cp betweenSE
and P(03A91~ (B)).
Condition
"Regular
resonant set" : For eachnon-vanishing parallel
vector field X E
Vv (B)
and eachpoint b
e03A3x,
one hasThis
implies
that for each X EVv (B)
the resonant set03A3X
is a 1-codimen-sionnal submanifold of B.
Condition "Resonant set with
empty
interior " : For each non-vanishing parallel
vector field X eVv (B),
the resonant set03A3X
has anempty
interior.Condition "Rüssmann" : For each
non-vanishing parallel
vector fieldX E
Vv (B),
theimage
of thefrequency
map does not annihilate X on an open set. In flatcoordinates,
this condition means that theimage
of~ :
çj
eRd ~ 9F ~ Rd
does not lie in anyhyperplane passing through
theorigin.

Hierarchy
of conditions First ofall,
we will show thatConsequently,
those fourequivalent
conditions will be denotedby
" Weaknondegeneracy". Then,
we will show thefollowing equivalences.
In the second
subsection,
we will show that we have thefollowing impli-
cations :
3.1.
Equivalent
conditionsPROPOSITION 3.1. - Condition
"Bryuno"
isequivalent
to Condition"N".
Proof.
- Consider the linear maps U :TbB
~ R ~Tb B
and V :TbB - T*bB
~ R of Conditions"Bryuno"
and "N". We will show thatUt -
V.Indeed,
for each X ETbB
and each(Y, cx)
ETbB
~R,
thetransposed Ut : TbB ~ Tb B
~ R verifies :where the
symmetry
ofF"
has been used.Therefore,
one hasThis
implies
thatrank (V) = rank(Ut) = rank (U)
and thus that Condi-tions "N" and
"Bryuno"
areequivalent.
DPROPOSITION 3.2. - Condition
"Bryuno"
isequivalent
to Condition"Turning frequencies ".
Proof.
- LetdFb~ = ~ (b)
be theparallel
1-form which coincides with dF at thepoint
b. Condition "TF"( "Turning frequencies" )
means that thederivative
(7r
o~) *
of the map 7r o ~ : B~P(Ql (B))
issurjective.
SinceP
(Ç2’ (B))
is(d - l)-dimensionnal,
Condition "TF" means that the kernel of(03C0 o ~)*
is 1-dimensionnal.Now,
the kernel of(03C0 o ~) *
isprecisely
thespace of X such that cp*
(X)
is in the kernel of 03C0*, i.e.tangent
to the fibers03C0-1. Using
the naturalisomorphism
betweenQi (B)
and itstangent
spaceT
(Ç2’ (B)),
oneeasily
sees that ker(7r
o~)*
iscomposed
of the vectors X such thatcp*Xb
ce p(b).
Condition "TF" is thusequivalent
torequiring
thatif
Xb
andYb satisfy ~*Xb
ce p(b)
and~*Yb
ce p(b),
thenXb oc Yb.
On the other
hand,
we show that~* Xb = VXb 17F. Indeed,
let t ~ b(t)
be a
geodesic t
~ b(t), passing through
b at t =0,
and letXb
thetangent
vector of b
(t)
at b. In aneigborhood
ofb,
one can extendXb
in aunique
way to aparallel
vector field X. We thus have~tX (b)
= b(t).
We want to calculatep*Xb = d (~(b (t)))t=0. By definition,
for eacht,
~(b (t)) = dFb(t)
is theparallel
1-form which coincides withdfb(t)
at thepoint b (t).
It is invariantby
the flow of anyparallel
vectorfield,
and thusby
the one ofX,
i.e.Using
the definition of the Liederivative,
one obtains~*Xb
=(f-x (dF) ) b .
The Cartan’s
magic
formula thengives ~*Xb
=d(dF(X))b. Finally,
sinceX is
parallel,
we find that~*Xb
=(~X~F)b.
Together
with theprevious result,
we have thusproved
that ifXb
andYb satisfy (7Xb VF)b
ocdFb
et(Vyb’7F)b
ocdFb,
thenthey
must belinearly
dependent.
This isprecisely
Condition"Bryuno".
DPROPOSITION 3.3. - Condition "N" is
equivalent
to Condition"Regu-
lar resonant set".
Proof. - Indeed,
for each X EVv (B),
one hasÇ2x - ~XF
and thusd (ç2x)
=V’7xF
=VX17F.
Condition"Regular
resonant set" thus readsThis is
equivalent
toi.e.
precisely
Condition "N".714
PROPOSITION 3.4. - Condition
"Iso-energetic"
isequivalent
to Condi-tion
"Iso-energetic turning frequencies ".
Proof.
- Condition"Iso-energetic turning frequencies"
amounts to re-quiring
that at eachpoint b
the map(7r
o)*
restricted to an energy levelSE
=F-1 (E)
is aisomorphism
betweenTbSE
andT03C0(~(b))P (Ç2’ (B)),
i.e.the kernel of
(7r
o~)*
is transverse toSE. Arguing
as in theproof
ofProposi-
tion
3.2,
this isequivalent
torequiring
that ifXb
verifies(~Xb~H)b
ocdHb,
then
Xb
must be transverse toSE,
i.e.dF(Xb) ~ 0,
which isprecisely
Condition
"Iso-energetic".
DPROPOSITION 3.5. - Condition "Russmann" is
equivalent
to Condition"Resonant set with empy interior".
Proof. - By
definition of thefrequency
map ~, for each X EVv (B),
one has
~(b)(X)= dF~b(X ) .
Since both X anddFb
areparallel,
thecontraction
dFb (X)
is a constant function on B and thusequals
to itsvalue at the
point b
which isnothing
butdFb (X)
=03A9X (b).
We thus have~(.) (X)
=03A9X (.). Now,
~(b)
annihilates X on an open subset iff the reso- nant setEx - nx1 (0)
contains this opensubset,
and therefore its interior is notempty.
D3.2.
Stronger
and weaker conditionsPROPOSITION 3.6. - Condition
"Iso-energetic" implies
Condition"Weak".
Proof.
- Condition"Iso-energetic"
means that for each X eKb,
the1-form
~X~F|Kb
isnon-vanishing.
Thisproperty
remains true whithout the restriction toKb,
i.e.which is Condition "N". D
PROPOSITION 3.7. - Condition
"Kolmogorov" implies
Condition"Weak".
Proof
Condition"Kolmogorov"
means that for each X ETbB,
one hasV’ xV’ F =1=
0.By restriction,
this remains true for each X EKb,
which isCondition "N". D
PROPOSITION 3.8. - Condition "Weak"
implies "Kolmogorov
orIso-energetic".
Proof.
- We willactually
show thefollowing equivalent logical
state-ment : if Condition "Weak" is fulfilled but not Condition
"Kolmogorov",
then Condition
"Iso-energetic"
is fulfilled.Suppose
that there is a vector X eTbB
such that’7x’7F -
0 at b. We can then extend X around b to aparallel
vectorfield,
and thanks to thesymmetry
ofFil ,
one has~~XF
= 0at b,
i.e.(d03A9X)b =
0. On the otherhand,
if Condition"Regular
resonantset" is
fulfilled,
thisimplies
that b cannotbelong
to the resonant set03A3X,
and
thus X e Kb. Moreover,
Condition"Bryuno"
insures that each Y sat-isfying ’7x’7F
oc dF at b must belinearly dependent
onX,
i.e. Y oc X.We thus have showed that for each Y E
Kb satisfying ~Y~F
ocdF,
onehas Y oc X and therefore
Y e Kb.
Thisimplies
that Y = 0. It isprecisely
Condition
"Iso-energetic".
DPROPOSITION 3.9. - Condition "Weak"
implies
Condition "Rüssmann".Proof. - Indeed,
Condition"Regular
resonant set"implies
that for eachnon-vanishing parallel
vector field X eVv (B),
the resonant set03A3X
is a1-codimensional
submanifold,
and thus has anempty
interior. D3.3.
Examples
Example. "Kolmogorov"
and"Iso-energetic".
- On B =RdB 0,
con-sider the function
F(03B6) = 1 2|03B6|2, where |03B6|2
=Ed 1 (03B6j)2.
The differential is dFEj=l 03B6jd03B6j
and the HessianFij (03B6)=03B4ij
is theidentity
matrix ateach
point 03B6. Therefore,
one has det(Fij) = 1 ,
which means that Factually
satisfies Condition
"Kolmogorov"
onRd.
On the otherhand,
astraightfor-
ward calculation
yields
This is non-zero
whenever ç =1= 0,
and thus F satisfies both Conditions"Kolmogorov"
and"Iso-energetic"
on B =RdB
0.Example. "Iso-energetic"
but not"Kolmogorov".
- On B =Rd B 0,
letus consider the function F
(03B6)=|03B6|.
The differential is716
the Hessian is
Fij (03B6) = 03B4iJ|03B6|- 03B6i03B6J |03B6|3.
We can see that Condition"Kolmogorov"
is nowhere satisfied since for each
03B6,
the vectorXj == çj
verifiesVXVF
= 0.Indeed,
for each i one hasNevertheless,
Condition"Iso-Energetic"
is satisfied since whenever a vector X verifiesVX17F
oc VF and~XF
=0,
this means thatBy inserting
the secondequation
into the first one, one must haveand this is
possible only for 03B6
=0,
i.e. Condition"Iso-Energetic"
is satisfiedon 8 =
Rd B
0.ExamDle. "Kolmogoroy" but not "Iso-energetic"
consider the function F
(03BE) = 03BE31 3
+1.
The differential is dF =03BE21d03BE1 + 03BE2d03BE2
and the Hessian is The determinant of
F"
is thussimply
det(F") = 26 which is non-zero on B. Condition "Kolmogorov"
is
thus satisfied.
Nevertheless,
one verifieseasily
thatOutside from
Ç1 == 0,
this determinant vanishes on the curvegiven by
theequation 03BE31
+203BE22 =
0. This means that Condition"Iso-energetic"
is notsatisfied on this curve.
Example.
"Rüssmann" but not "Weak". - On 03B2 =R 2 B 0,
let us con-sider the function F
(03BE) = 03BE41
+03BE42.
The differential is iimplying
that for each X ER2,
one hasThe associated resonant set is
simply
aline
passing through
theorigine
and withslope equal
, withoutthe
origin point.
This set has anempty
interior and therefore Condition"Rüssmann" is satisfied. On the other
hand,
the differential ofex
isgiven by d03A9X = 12 (03BE21X1d03BE1 + 03BE22X2d03BE2).
We can see that for some vectorsX,
the differential
d03A9X
vanishes at somepoints belonging
to03A3X,
and thusCondition "Weak" is not satisfied. For
example,
for X =(XI, 0)
the reso-nant set
03A3X
is the verticalaxis {(0,03BE2); Ç2 =1= 01
without theorigin point.
Now,
at eachpoint
of thisset,
one hasdo x
= 0.4. Somes
properties
of ND hamiltoniansLet
(H, M B)
be aregular
CIsystem composed
of a fibration inlagrangian
toriM 1
Btogether
with a Hamiltonian H E C°°(M)
constantalong
thefibers,
i.e. H = F07r for some F E C°°(B).
Asexplained
in Section1,
such a fibrationimplies
the existence of a natural torsion-free and flat connection on the base spaceB,
the Duistermaat connection.Moreover,
onecan
easily
show that the Hamiltonian vector fieldXH
associated with H istangent
to the fibration and its restriction to each torusMb
is an element ofVv (Mb),
i.e. isparallel
withrespect
to Weintein’s connection.Therefore,
oneach
torus, XH generates
a lineardynamics
that can beperiodic,
resonantor non-resonant.
The resonance
properties
areactually well-parametrized by using
theResonance bundle E.
Indeed,
for anygiven
k Ef (E),
thepreviously
de-fined set
03A3k
=03A9-1k (0),
withÇ2k
= dF(k),
isactually
the set of tori onwhich the Hamiltonian vector field
XH
satisfies at least one resonance re-lation which reads
_j=j kiXj
= 0 inaction-angle
coordinates. On suchtori,
thedynamics
isactually
confined in(d - 1 )-dimensionnal
subtori. If thedynamics
ofXH
isperiodic
on a torusMb,
this means that it satisfiesd - 1 resonance
relations,
i.e. bbelongs
to the intersection of the resonant sets03A3k1, ..., 03A3kd-1, where the kj
arelinearly independent
sections of F(E).
On the other
hand,
ifXH
isergodic
on sometorûs Mb,
this means that bdoes not
belong
to any resonant set.LEMMA 4.1.
- If H E
C°°(M) is
"Rüssmann"non-degenerate,
thenthe set
of
tori on which thedynamics
isergodic
is dense in B.Proof.
- Let F e C°°(8)
such that H = F o 7r. IfM b
is anergodic torus,
this means that b does notbelong
to any resonant setSk,
i.e. b E8BUk Ek -
We will show that
B B ~k 03A3k
is dense in Bby showing
that the interior of~k Ek
isempty. Indeed,
whenever the function F satisfies Condition"Rüssmann",
then for eachnon-vanishing k
e0393(E),
the subsetEk
has718
empty
interior.Moreover, 03A3k
is a closed subset since it is the inverseimage
of the
point
0 e Rby
the continuous map dF(k) :
B ~ R. We can thenapply
the Baire’s Theorem(see
for e.g.[?])
which insures that~k03A3k
hasempty
interior. DLEMMA 4.2. -
If
the Hamiltonian H E C°°(M)
is "RÜssmann" non-degenerate,
then the spaceof
smoothfunctions
on M constantalong
thefibers equals
to the spaceof
smoothfunctions
on M which Poisson-commutewith H.
Proof. - Indeed,
if a function A E C°°(M)
satisfies{H, A} = 0,
thenone has
XH (A) =
0 and therefore A is constantalong
thetrajectories
ofXH.
For each torusMb
on which thedynamics
isergodic,
thisimplies
that A is constant over this torus.
Now,
Lemma 4.1 insures that when H satisfies Condition"Rüssmann",
then the set ofergodic
tori is dense in B.By continuity,
this shows that A is constantalong
all the fibersMb.
Conversely,
if A is constantalong
all thefibers,
then{H, A}
=XH (A)
= 0since
XH
istangent
to the fibration. DCOROLLARY 4.3. - Let H E C°°
(M)
be a "Rüssmann"non-degenerate
Hamiltonian and
A,
B E C°°(M)
twofunctions. Then,
thefollowing
holdsProof. - Indeed,
if A and B commute withH,
Lemma ??implies
thatA and B are constant
along
the fibers.Moreover,
since the fibers are la-grangian, XA
istangent
to them and therefore(A, BI - XA (B) =
0.~
THEOREM 4.4. -
If H, M B) is a "Rüssmann" non-degenerate
C.I
system,
then M
B is the unique fibration
such that H is constant along
the
fibers.
Proof. - Indeed,
supposeM - B’
is another fibration such that H is constantalong
the fibers. Let al, ..., ad E Coo(B’)
be a local coordinatesystem
in an open subsetO’
CB’
andAj
= ai o03C0’, j
=l..d,
thepull-back
functions. Since the differentials
dAj
arelinearly independent in 03C0-1 (O’),
the fibers
(03C0’)-1
aregiven by
the level-sets of theAj’s. Moreover,
we haveThe geometry of nondegeneracy conditions in completely integrable systems
{Aj, HI
= 0 sinceby hypothesis
H is constantalong
thelagrangian
fibration7r’. Now,
Lemma ??implies
that the functionsAj
must be constantalong
the fibers of the first fibration 7r, since H is
non-degenerate.
This meansthat the fibers
7r-1
are included in the level sets of theAj’s,
and thus areincluded in the fibers of
03C0’.
Since the fibers of both fibrations have the samedimension, they
must coincide. DBibliography
