Frequency Map Analysis (FMA) (Laskar, 1990, 1999) is a refined numerical method based on Fourier techniques which provide a clear representation of the global dynamics of multi-dimensional systems, which is very effective for systems of 3 degrees of freedom and more, and was applied to a large class of dynamical systems. FMA requires only a very short integration time to obtain a measure of the diffusion of the trajectories, and allows to identify easily the location of the main resonances. Using this method, we have performed a complete analysis of massless particles in the Solar System (Robutel & Laskar 2001), from Mercury to the outer parts of the Kuiper belt (90 AU), for all values of the eccentricities, and several values for the inclinations. This provides a complete dynamical map of the Solar System, which is, in this first step, restricted to mean motion resonances. The dynamics of a planetary system which all the bodies have no zero mass can be studied with the same methods: an application to the JupiterSaturn system can be fined in (Robutel & Laskar 2002). We present here the application of this method to the understanding of the dynamics of the newly discovered v-Andromedae system.
