We study nonconservative quasi-periodic (with $m$ frequencies) perturbations of two-dimensional Hamiltonian systems with nonmonotonic rotation. It is assumed that the perturbation contains the so-called parametric terms. The behavior of solutions in the vicinity of degenerate resonances is described. Conditions for the existence of resonance $(m + 1)$-dimensional invariant tori for which there are no generating ones in the unperturbed system are found. The class of perturbations for which such tori can exist is indicated. The results are applied to the asymmetric Duffing equation under a parametric quasi-periodic perturbation.

Quasi-periodic nonconservative perturbations of two-dimensional nonlinear Hamiltonian systems are considered. The definition of a degenerate resonance is introduced and the topology of a degenerate resonance zone is studied. Particular attention is paid to the synchronization process during the passage of an invariant torus through the resonance zone. The existence of so-called synchronization intervals is proved and new phenomena which have to do with synchronization are found. The study is based on the analysis of a pendulum-type averaged system that determines the dynamics near the degenerate resonance phase curve of the unperturbed system.

We study chaotic dynamics and bifurcations in reversible and time-periodic perturbations of the classical Duffing equation in the case when this equation has a homoclinic figure-8 to the saddle zero equilibrium. We consider the perturbation to be nonconservative and show that the phenomenon of mixed dynamics occurs in the corresponding Poincaré map $T$ over the period. However, for small perturbations, the dynamics is predominantly dissipative: here, almost all orbits of $T$ from the interior of the homoclinic-8 (perhaps, except for orbits from small resonant zones) tend to a stable fixed point (sink) at forward iterations and to an unstable fixed point (source) at backward iterations. We show that, when the amplitude of perturbation increases, mixed dynamics, as the phenomenon of the intersection of the attractor with the repeller, becomes quite noticeable and even prevalent. In the paper, we propose two different bifurcation scenarios that lead to such mixed dynamics. In the first scenario, it emerges as a result of the phenomenon known as the attractor-repeller collision. In the second scenario, mixed dynamics arises immediately after a symmetric pair of simple saddle-node bifurcations that, due to reversibility, occur simultaneously with the sink and the source.
