| Zusammenfassung |
| We consider particle motion in nonautonomous 1 degree of
freedom Hamiltonian systems for which H(p,q,t) depends on N periodic
functions of t with incommensurable frequencies. It is shown that in
near-integrable systems of this type, phase space is partitioned into nonintersecting
regular and chaotic regions. In this respect there is no different between the N
= 1 (periodic time dependence) and the N = 2, 3, ... (quasi-periodic time
dependence) problems. An important consequence of this phase space structure is that the
mechanism that leads to fractal properties of chaotic trajectories in systems with N
= 1 also applies to the larger class of problems treated here. Implications of the results
presented to studies of ray dynamics in two-dimensional incompressible fluid flows are
discussed. |
