Weak eigenvalues in homoclinic classes: perturbations from saddles
with small angles (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
For 3-dimensional homoclinic classes of saddles with index 2, a
new sufficient condition for creating weak contracting eigenvalues is
provided. Our perturbation makes use of small angles between stable and
unstable subspaces of saddles. In particular, by recovering the unstable
eigenvector, we can designate that the newly created weak eigenvalue is
contracting. As applications, we obtain C^1-generic non-trivial index-
intervals of homoclinic classes and the C^1-approximation of robust
heterodimensional cycles. In particular, this sufficient condition is
satisfied by a substantial class of saddles with homoclinic tangencies.
