Extract
Let X be a two-dimensional orientable connected manifold without boundary, H: T*X → ℝ a smooth hamiltonian function denned on the cotangent bundle. We will assume that H is of a ‘classical type’ that is convex and even on each fibre Tx*X. The goal of this paper is to describe the set Γ of all singular points of the projection Θ|L where ι: L → T*X is a smooth embedded 2-torus invariant under the hamiltonian flow h1, Θ: T*X → X is the canonical projection.
