A nonlinear theory of secular resonances is developed. Both terms corresponding to secular resonances nu5 and nu6 are taken into account in the Hamiltonian. The simple overlap criterion is applied and the condition for the overlap of these resonances is found. The overlap criterion yields a critical value of parameter p depending on the semi-major axis a of the asteroid. For p greater than the critical value, a resonance overlap occurs and chaotic motion has to be expected. A mapping is presented for the fast calculation of the trajectories. The results are illustrated by level curves in surfaces of the section method.
