On the existence of heteroclinic connections

Assume that W : R m → R is a nonnegative potential that vanishes only on a finite set A with at least two elements. By direct minimization of the action functional on a suitable set of maps we give a new elementary proof of the existence of a heteroclinic orbit that connects any given a - ∈ A to som...

Zusammenfassung:Assume that W : R m → R is a nonnegative potential that vanishes only on a finite set A with at least two elements. By direct minimization of the action functional on a suitable set of maps we give a new elementary proof of the existence of a heteroclinic orbit that connects any given a - ∈ A to some a + ∈ A \ { a - } .
