摘要
We consider 2-degrees of freedom Hamiltonian systems with an involutive symmetry and a pair of orbits bi-asymptotic (homoclinic) to a saddle-center equilibrium (related to pairs of pure real, ±ν, and pure imaginary eigenvalues, ±ω i). We show that the stability of this double homoclinic loop is determined by the reflection coefficient of a one-dimensional scattering problem and ω/ν. We also show that the mechanism for losing stability is the creation of an infinite heteroclinic chain connecting a sequence of periodic orbits that accumulates at the double loop.
