Title
KAM dynamics and stabilization of a particle sliding over a periodically driven curve
Abstract
The dynamics of a bead sliding without friction along a periodically pulsating wire is under consideration. If the arc length of the wire is taken as the relevant coordinate, the motion of the bead is described by a periodic newtonian equation. Sufficient conditions are derived assuring that a given equilibrium is of twist type, a property that implies its nonlinear stability as well as a KAM scenario around it. Special attention is paid to the stabilization of unstable equilibria, in parallel with the stabilization of the inverted pendulum.
