Abstract:
This paper is concerned with the motions of a near-autonomous two-degree-of-freedom
Hamiltonian system, $2\pi$-periodic in time, in a neighborhood of a trivial equilibrium. It is as-
sumed that in the autonomous case, in the region where only necessary (which are not sufficient)
conditions for the stability of this equilibrium are satisfied, for some parameter values of the
system one of the frequencies of small linear oscillations is equal to two and the other is equal
to one. An analysis is made of nonlinear oscillations of the system in a neighborhood of this
equilibrium for the parameter values near a resonant point of parameter space. The boundaries
of the parametric resonance regions are constructed which arise in the presence of secondary
resonances in the transformed linear system (the cases of zero frequency and equal frequencies).
The general case and both cases of secondary resonances are considered; in particular, the case
of two zero frequencies is singled out. An analysis is made of resonant periodic motions of the
system that are analytic in integer or fractional powers of the small parameter, and conditions
for their linear stability are obtained. Using KAM theory, two- and three-frequency conditionally
periodic motions (with frequencies of different orders in a small parameter) are described.
