(continuation of last week's seminar): We will discuss KAM results for symplectic and presymplectic maps. Firstly, we will study geometric properties of a symplectic dynamical system which will allow us to prove a KAM theorem in a-posteriori format. Then, a corresponding theorem for a parametric family of symplectic maps will be presented. Finally, using similar method, we will extend the theorems to presymplectic maps. These results appear in the work of Alishah, de la Llave, Gonzalez, Jorba and Villanueva.

We prove Ruelle's Entropy Inequality for C^1 maps. This is part of a reading seminar geared towards understanding of Smooth Ergodic Theory. (The study of dynamical systems using at the same time tools from measure theory and from differential geometry)It should be accesible to graduate students and the presentation is informal. The first goal will be a proof of the Oseledets multiplicative ergodic theorem for random matrices. Then, we will try to cover the Pesin entropy formula, invariant manifolds, etc.

We conclude the proof of the linearization theorem for fibered holomorphic maps by showing that the iteration scheme we proposed converges. If time allows, we will comment on related work by Mario Ponce and generalizations of the theorem for fibered holomorphic maps in higher dimensions.
