Abstract

A method of chaos reduction for Hamiltonian systems is applied to control chaotic advection. By adding a small and simple term to the stream function of the system, the construction of invariant tori has a stabilization effect in the sense that these tori act as barriers to diffusion in phase space and the controlled Hamiltonian system exhibits a more regular behaviour.
