abstract = {Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (or KAM) theory was developed for conservative dynamical systems that are nearly integrable. Integrable systems in their phase space usually contain lots of invariant tori, and KAM theory establishes persistence results for such tori, which carry quasi-periodic motions. We sketch this theory, which begins with Kolmogorov's pioneering work.},

This should remind you of \emph{Kepler's third law}: the square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi--major axis of its orbit, in symbols $\frac{T^2}{X^3} \sim \mathrm{const}$.

\section{The spherical pendulum}\label{sec:sphpen}
Let's come back to the spherical pendulum, introduced in Example~\ref{ex:sphericalP}.
Assume it moves in the presence of constant gravitational acceleration $g$ pointing downwards.
It's an exercise in trigonometry to see that the lagrangian in spherical coordinates takes the form

Consider a closed systems of two point particles with masses $m_{1,2}$.
We now know that, in an inertial frame of reference, their natural lagrangian musth have the form
\begin{equation}
L = \frac{m_1 \dot\bx_1^2}{2} + \frac{m_2 \dot\bx_2^2}{2} - U(\|\bx_1 - \bx_2\|).
L = \frac{m_1 \|\dot\bx_1\|^2}{2} + \frac{m_2 \|\dot\bx_2\|^2}{2} - U(\|\bx_1 - \bx_2\|).
\end{equation}
We have anticipated that such systems possesses many first integrals, so we can expect to be able to use them to integrate the equations of motion as in some previous examples.
If we fix the origin in the barycenter of the system, we get

Use D'Alembert principle to compute the constraint force acting on the spherical pendulum under the effect of the gravitational potential.
Use D'Alembert principle to compute the constraint force acting on the spherical pendulum\footnote{Section~\ref{sec:sphpen}.} under the effect of the gravitational potential.

Assume, then, that the constraint force can act only radially outward. Imagine, for example that the point particle is a pebble set in motion on a frictionless and impenetrable ball of dry ice at rest.
When and where will the particle leave the sphere?

If you formally write down the equations of motion, you can convince yourself that if all the series were to be convergent, the hamiltonian system could be easily integrated.
In fact, the question of convergence of \eqref{eq:ictbnf} for $n>1$ is a rather delicate problem, related to the existence of first integrals with certain analyticity properties.
