Abstract:
As we have proved in [11], the geodesic flows associated with the flat metrics on $\mathbb{T}^2$ minimize the polynomial entropy $h_{pol}$. In this paper, we show that, among the geodesic flows that are Bott integrable and dynamically coherent, the geodesic flows associated with flat metrics are local strict minima for $h_{pol}$. To this aim, we prove a graph property for invariant Lagrangian tori in near-integrable systems.
