CHAOS AND SHADOWING AROUND A HOMOCLINIC TUBE YANGUANG (CHARLES) LI Received 7 February 2003 Let F be a C3 diffeomorphism on a Banach space B . F has a homoclinic tube asymptotic to an invariant manifold. Around the homoclinic tube, Bernoulli shift dynamics of submanifolds is established through a shadowing lemma. This work removes an uncheckable condition of Silnikov (1968). Also, the result of Silnikov does not imply Bernoulli shift dynamics of a single map, but rather only provides a labeling of all invariant tubes around the homoclinic tube. The work of Silnikov was done in Rn and the current work is done in a Banach space. 1. Introduction In [4], Silnikov introduced the concept of a homoclinic tube which can be ob- tained through a transversal intersection of the center-unstable and center-stable n manifolds of a normally hyperbolic invariant manifold under a map in R . In- tuitively speaking, a homoclinic tube can be regarded as a homoclinic orbit on which points are replaced by submanifolds. Under a certain assumption [4, equa- tion (11), page 625] which is uncheckable, all the invariant tubes in the neigh- borhood of the homoclinic tube can be labeled symbolically. Such a symbolic labeling does not imply Bernoulli shift of a single map. The result was proved through a contraction map argument on a sequence of metric spaces. In the current paper, we adopt a different approach developed in [1]. We will estab- lish Bernoulli shift dynamics of submanifolds through a shadowing lemma. The uncheckable assumption of Silnikov is removed. We will work in a Banach space, n while Silnikov worked in R . Especially for high-dimensional systems, homoclinic tubes are more domi- nant structures than homoclinic orbits. In fact, the invariant manifold that the homoclinic tube is asymptotic to, can contain smaller scale chaot
