Abstract

Maps…

Let ƒ be a diffeomorphism of the plane. A periodic point of ƒ is a point P such that. This periodic point is a saddle if the Jacobian matrix of ƒn at P has one eigenvalue out of the unit circle, and one inside. A saddle has two invariant manifolds: the stable manifold of P is the set of points WI, whose orbits converge to P as m→co, the unstable manifold of P is the set of points Wp whose orbits converge to P as m→co. If ƒ maps the 2-disk D2 into itself, we call the restriction of ƒ to D2 a smooth embedding, and still denote by f the new map.
