 Chierchia L., Koudjinan C. V. I. Arnold's “Pointwise” KAM Theorem 2019, vol. 24, no. 6, pp.  583-606 Abstract We review V.I. Arnold's 1963 celebrated paper [1] Proof of A.N. Kolmogorov's Theorem on the Conservation of Conditionally Periodic Motions with a Small Variation in the Hamiltonian, and prove that, optimising Arnold's scheme, one can get ''sharp'' asymptotic quantitative conditions (as $\varepsilon \to 0$, $\varepsilon$ being the strength of the perturbation). All constants involved are explicitly computed. Keywords: Nearly-integrable Hamiltonian systems, KAM theory, Arnold's Theorem, small divisors, perturbation theory, symplectic transformations Citation: Chierchia L., Koudjinan C.,  V. I. Arnold's “Pointwise” KAM Theorem, Regular and Chaotic Dynamics, 2019, vol. 24, no. 6, pp. 583-606 DOI:10.1134/S1560354719060017

 Chierchia L. Kolmogorov’s 1954 Paper on Nearly-Integrable Hamiltonian Systems 2008, vol. 13, no. 2, pp.  130-139 Abstract Following closely Kolmogorov’s original paper [1], we give a complete proof of his celebrated Theorem on perturbations of integrable Hamiltonian systems by including few "straightforward" estimates. Keywords: Kolmogorov’s theorem, KAM theory, small divisors, Hamiltonian systems, perturbation theory, symplectic transformations, nearly-integrable systems Citation: Chierchia L.,  Kolmogorov’s 1954 Paper on Nearly-Integrable Hamiltonian Systems, Regular and Chaotic Dynamics, 2008, vol. 13, no. 2, pp. 130-139 DOI:10.1134/S1560354708020056
 Celletti A., Chierchia L. Construction of stable periodic orbits for the spin-orbit problem of celestial mechanics 1998, vol. 3, no. 3, pp.  107-121 Abstract Birkhoff periodic orbits associated to spin-orbit resonances in Celestial Mechanics and in particular to the Moon–Earth and Mercury–Sun systems are considered. A general method (based on a quantitative version of the Implicit Function Theorem) for the construction of such orbits with particular attention to "effective estimates" on the size of the perturbative parameters is presented and tested on the above mentioned systems. Lyapunov stability of the periodic orbits (for small values of the perturbative parameters) is proved by constructing KAM librational invariant surfaces trapping the periodic orbits.
