Symplectic integration of Hamiltonian systems using polynomial maps

Abstract: In order to perform numerical studies of long-term stability in nonlinear Hamiltonian systems, one needs a numerical integration algorithm which is symplectic. Further, this algorithm should be fast and accurate. In this paper, we propose such a symplectic integration algorithm using polynomial map refactorization of the symplectic map representing the Hamiltonian system. This method should be particularly useful in long-term stability studies of particle storage rings in accelerators.

“…Since the action of the linear partM on phase space variables is well known and is already a polynomial action, we only refactorize the nonlinear part of the map using N polynomial maps. 32 This is done as follows:…”

“…Maps of type (1) also appear in symplectic discretizations of natural Lagrangian systems (see e.g. [4,5,30] and formulae (7), (8) below). My interest in Hénon-like maps is due to the fact that they appear as rescaled first-return maps at homoclinic bifurcations, near a homoclinic tangency in particular (see [6,7,11,8,9] and section 2).…”
