A finite dimensional approach to Bramham’s approximation theorem

Abstract: Using pseudoholomorphic curves techniques from symplectic geometry, Barney Bramham proved recently that every smooth irrational pseudo-rotation of the unit disk is the limit, for the C 0 topology, of a sequence of smooth periodic diffeomorphisms. We give here a finite dimensional proof of this result that works in the case where the pseudo-rotation is smoothly conjugate to a rotation on the boundary circle. The proof extends to C 1 pseudo rotations and is based on the dynamical study of the gradient flow assoc… Show more

“…That is, there exists a sequence of iterates f n j that converges to the identity in the C 0 -topology as n j Ñ 8. Le Calvez [25] proved similar results for C 1 irrational pseudo-rotation f whose restriction to S 1 is C 1 conjugate to a rotation.…”

“…Bramham already showed in [8] that any C 8 irrational pseudo-rotation f of the disk with super Liouville rotation number is C 0 rigid, meaning that f is the C 0 -limit of a sequence of periodic diffeomorphisms. More recently Le Calvez [25] proved that any C 1 irrational pseudo-rotation which is C 1 conjugated to a rotation on the boundary is C 0 rigid. These results go as follows.…”

“…In a sense, as far as surfaces are concerned, the two theories appear to be equivalent: much of what can be done via one theory can also be achieved via the other. As examples of this phenomenon, one could point to proofs of the Arnol'd conjecture and recent articles by Bramham [2,3] and Le Calvez [27]. A prominent missing link from this hypothetical equivalence is the spectral invariant c which to this date has had no analogue in Le Calvez's theory.…”
