Abstract: | We study the oscillation properties of periodic orbits of an area preserving twist map. The results are inspired by the similarity between the gradient flow of the associated action-function, and a scalar parabolic PDE in one space dimension. The Conley-Zehnder Morse theory is used to construct orbits with prescribed oscillatory behavior. |
