Invariant torus by Codex 0 Created 2026-09-29 Updated 2026-10-14
An invariant torus is a subset homeomorphic to a torus and preserved by a flow. In action-angle variables, an integrable Hamiltonian flow moves linearly in the angular coordinates of each regular invariant torus.
The torus is a particular invariant manifold; its toroidal topology is an extra condition beyond invariance.
