We prove that infinitely differentiable almost reducible quasi-periodic cocycles, under a Diophantine condition on the frequency vector, are almost reducible to a sequence of real constant cocycles with a sequence of real conjugations, up to a period doubling.
Given a quasiperiodic cocycle in sl(2, R) sufficiently close to a constant, we prove that it is almost-reducible in ultradifferentiable class under an adapted arithmetic condition on the frequency vector. We also give a corollary on the H{ö}lder regularity of the Lyapunov exponent.
One considers a system on $\mathbb{C}^2$ close to an invariant curve which can be viewed as a generalization of the semi-standard map to a trigonometric polynomial with many Fourier modes. The radius of convergence of an analytic linearization of the system around the invariant curve is bounded from below by $\exp(-\frac{2}{d}B(dα)-C)$, where $C\geq 0$ does not depend on $α$, $d\in \mathbb{N}^*$ and $α$ is the frequency of the linear part. For a class of trigonometric polynomials, it is also bounded from above by a similar function. The error function is non decreasing with respect to the smallest coefficient of the trigonometric polynomial.
We prove a reducibility result for sl(2,R) quasi-periodic cocycles close to a constant elliptic matrix in ultra-differentiable classes, under an adapted arithmetic condition which extends the Brjuno-R{ü}ssmann condition in the analytic case. The proof is based on an elementary property of the fibered rotation number and deals with ultra-differentiable functions with a weighted Fourier norm. We also show that a weaker arithmetic condition is necessary for reducibility, and that it can be compared to a sufficient arithmetic condition.
We show that if the base frequency is Diophantine, then the Lyapunov exponent of a $C^{k}$ quasi-periodic $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ cocycle is $1/2$-Hölder continuous in the almost reducible regime, if $k$ is large enough. As a consequence, we show that if the frequency is Diophantine, $k$ is large enough, and the potential is $C^k$ small, then the integrated density of states of the corresponding quasi-periodic Schrödinger operator is $1/2$-Hölder continuous.
We consider the holomorphic normalization problem for a holomorphic vector field in the neighborhood of the product of a fixed point and an invariant torus. Supposing that the vector field is a perturbation of a linear part around the fixed point and of a rotation on the invariant torus (the unperturbed vector field is called the quasi-linear part of the perturbed one), it was shown by J.Aurouet that the system is holomorphically linearizable if there are no exact resonances in the quasi-linear part and if the quasi-linear part satisfies to Brjuno's arithmetical condition. In the presence of exact resonances, a conjecture by Brjuno states that the system will still be holomorphically conjugated to a normal form under the same arithmetical condition and a strong algebraic condition on the formal normal form. This article proves this conjecture.
The arithmetics of the frequency and of the rotation number play a fundamental role in the study of reducibility of analytic quasi-periodic cocycles which are sufficiently close to a constant. In this paper we show how to generalize previous works by L.H.Eliasson which deal with the diophantine case so as to implement a Brjuno-Russmann arithmetical condition both on the frequency and on the rotation number. Our approach adapts the Poschel-Russmann KAM method, which was previously used in the problem of linearization of vector fields, to the problem of reducing cocycles.
Quasi-periodic cocycles with a diophantine frequency and with values in SL(2,R) are shown to be almost reducible as long as they are close enough to a constant, in the topology of k times differentiable functions, with k great enough. Almost reducibility is obtained by analytic approximation after a loss of differentiability which only depends on the frequency and on the constant part. As in the analytic case, if their fibered rotation number is diophantine or rational with respect to the frequency, such cocycles are in fact reducible. This extends Eliasson's theorem on Schrödinger cocycles to the differentiable case.
This paper is about almost reducibility of quasi-periodic cocycles with a diophantine frequency which are sufficiently close to a constant. Generalizing previous works by L.H.Eliasson, we show a strong version of almost reducibility for analytic and Gevrey cocycles, that is to say, almost reducibility where the change of variables is in an analytic or Gevrey class which is independent of how close to a constant the initial cocycle is conjugated. This implies a result of density, or quasi-density, of reducible cocycles near a constant. Some algebraic structure can also be preserved, by doubling the period if needed.
Gevrey 2 quasi-periodic cocycles with diophantine frequency, close to a constant, with values in classical Lie groups, are almost reducible in a weak sense. This is the analogue of Eliasson's almost reducibility theorem for analytic cocycles.
Let G be a linear Lie group. We define the G-reducibility of a continuous or discrete cocycle modulo N. We show that a G-valued continuous or discrete cocycle which is GL(n,C)-reducible is in fact G-reducible modulo 2 if G=GL(n,R),SL(n,R),Sp(n,R) or O(n) and modulo 1 if G=U(n).
