Smooth Linearization for a Saddle on Banach Spaces

As a continuation of a previous work on linearization of class C¹ of diffeomorphisms and flows in infinite dimensions near a fixed point, in this work we deal with the case of a saddle point with some non-resonance restrictions for the linear part. Our result can be seen as an extension of results by Hartman Boletin de la Sociedad Matematica Mexicana 5(2), 220–241 (1960)] and Aronson, Belitskii and Zhuzhoma Introduction to the Qualitative Theory of Dynamical systems on surfaces, AMS Transl. Math. Monog. vol.153, pp. 268–277 (1996)] in dimension two. We also present an application to a system of nonlinear wave equations.AMS Subject Classifications: Primary: 35B05, 34G20.
