Abstract

We present some results of KAM type, comparable to the KAM theory for volume-preserving maps and flows, for generalized Hamiltonian systems which may admit a distinct number of action and angle variables. In particular, systems under consideration can be odd dimensional. Applications to the perturbation of three-dimensional steady Euler fluid particle path flows are considered with respect to the existence problem of barriers to fluid transport and mixing.
