Exponential asymptotic expansions and approximations of the unstable and stable manifolds of singularly perturbed systems with the Henon map as an example.
The subject of this paper is the construction of the exponential asymptotic expansions of the unstable and stable manifolds of the area-preserving Henon map. The approach that is taken enables one to capture the exponentially small effects that result from what is known as the Stokes phenomenon in the analytic theory of equations with irregular singular points. The exponential asymptotic expansions were then used to obtain explicit functional approximations for the stable and unstable manifolds. These approximations are compared with numerical simulations and the agreement is excellent. Several of the main results of the paper have been previously announced in A. Tovbis, M. Tsuchiya, and C. Jaffe ["Chaos-integrability transition in nonlinear dynamical systems: exponential asymptotic approach," Differential Equations and Applications to Biology and to Industry, edited by M. Martelli, K. Cooke, E. Cumberbatch, B. Tang, and H. Thieme (World Scientific, Singapore, 1996), pp. 495-507, and A. Tovbis, M. Tsuchiya, and C.
