Infinitely many homoclinic orbits for Hamiltonian systems with group symmetries

Cheng Lee

Abstract:
This paper deals via variational methods with the existence of infinitely many homoclinic orbits for a class of the first-order time-dependent Hamiltonian systems
$$ \dot{z}=JH_z(t,z) $$
without any periodicity assumption on $H$, providing that $H(t,z)$ is G-symmetric with respect to $z\in {\Bbb R}^{2N}$, is superquadratic as $|z|\to\infty$, and satisfies some additional assumptions.
