Аннотация:
We review a recent application of the ideas of normal form theory to systems
(Hamiltonian ones or general ODEs) where the perturbing term is not periodic in one coordinate
variable. The main difference from the standard case consists in the non-uniqueness of the
normal form and the total absence of the small divisors problem. The exposition is quite general,
so as to allow extensions to the case of more non-periodic coordinates, and more functional
settings. Here, for simplicity, we work in the real-analytic class.
