Hamiltonian Floer theory for nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations and the small divisor problem

Abstract

We prove the existence of infinitely many time-periodic solutions of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations using pseudo-holomorphic curve methods from Hamiltonian Floer theory. For the generalization of the Gromov-Floer compactness theorem to infinite dimensions, we show how to solve the arising small divisor problem by combining elliptic methods with results from the theory of diophantine approximations.
