Dynamics in the controlled center manifolds by Hamiltonian structure-preserving stabilization

A two-dimensional hyperbolic Hamiltonian system can be linearly stabilized by a Hamiltonian structure-preserving controller. A linear symplectic transformation and the Lie series method can successfully normalize the expanded Hamiltonian function around a controlled stable equilibrium point, then the dynamics in the controlled center manifolds of which can be described by a Poincare section. With the implement of the inverse transformation of the Lie series, the analytical results of the controlled manifolds can be obtained. Applying normalization and analytical calculation to planar solar sail three-body problem, we can get the normal form of the corresponding Hamiltonian function and trajectory around the chosen equilibrium point by analytical results. Finally, typical KAM theory is used to analyze the nonlinear stability of the controlled equilibrium point, and the stable region of the control gains are given by numerical calculation.
