Abstract

In this paper, we study the Hamiltonian systems H(y, x, ξ, ε) = 〈ω(ξ),y〉+εP(y, x, ξ, ε), where ω and P are continuous about ξ. We prove that persistent invariant tori possess the same frequency as the unperturbed tori, under a certain transversality condition and a weak convexity condition for the frequency mapping ω. As a direct application, we prove a Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM) theorem when the perturbation P holds arbitrary Hölder continuity with respect to the parameter ξ. The infinite-dimensional case is also considered. To our knowledge, this is the first approach to the systems with the only continuity in the parameter beyond Hölder’s type.
