First steps towards the averaging with respect to a part of the coordinates


Ivan Polekhin




The problem of averaging on an infinite time interval is considered. The classical results on averaging proved by N.N. Bogoluybov are generalized to the case in which only a part of the coordinates in the phase space remains close to the equilibrium position of the averaged system. We call this the averaging with respect to a part of the coordinates. The results are based on some topological ideas combined with the standard theorem on averaging on a finite time interval.
