Optimal linearization of vector fields on the torus in non-analytic Gevrey classes
Résumé
We study linear and non-linear small divisors problems in analytic and non-analytic regularity. We observe that the Bruno arithmetic condition, which is usually attached to non-linear analytic problems, can also be characterized as the optimal condition to solve the linear problem in some fixed non quasi-analytic class. Based on this observation, it is natural to conjecture that the optimal arithmetic condition for the linear problem is also optimal for non-linear small divisors problems in any reasonable non quasi-analytic classes. Our main result proves this conjecture in a representative non-linear problem, which is the linearization of vector fields on the torus, in the most representative non quasi-analytic class, which is the Gevrey class. The proof follows Moser's argument of approximation by analytic functions, and uses in an essential way works of Popov, R\"{u}ssmann and P\"{o}schel.
