The Ideal Resonance Problem in its normal form is defined by the Hamiltonian (1) F = A (y) + 2B (y) sin^2 x with (2) A = 0(1),B = 0(\varepsilon ) where ɛ is a small parameter, andx andy a pair of canonically conjugate variables. A solution to 0(ɛ1/2) has been obtained by Garfinkel (1966) and Jupp (1969). An extension of the solution to 0(ɛ) is now in progress in two papers ([Garfinkel and Williams] and [Hori and Garfinkel]), using the von Zeipel and the Hori-Lie perturbation methods, respectively. In the latter method, the unperturbed motion is that of a simple pendulum. The character of the motion depends on the value of theresonance parameter α, defined by (3) α = - A' /|4A' ' B' |^{1/2} forx=0. We are concerned here withdeep resonance, (4) α< \varepsilon ^{ - 1/4} , where the classical solution with a critical divisor is not admissible. The solution of the perturbed problem would provide a theoretical framework for an attack on a problem of resonance in celestial mechanics, if the latter is reducible to the Ideal form: The process of reduction involves the following steps: (1) the ration 1/n2 of the natural frequencies of the motion generates a sequence. (5) n_1 /n_2 ˜ left\{ {Pi/qi} right\},i = 1, 2 ... of theconvergents of the correspondingcontinued fraction, (2) for a giveni, the class ofresonant terms is defined, and all non-resonant periodic terms are eliminated from the Hamiltonian by a canonical transformation, (3) thedominant resonant term and itscritical argument are calculated, (4) the number of degrees of freedom is reduced by unity by means of a canonical transformation that converts the critical argument into an angular variable of the new Hamiltonian, (5) the resonance parameter α (i) corresponding to the dominant term is then calculated, (6) a search for deep resonant terms is carried out by testing the condition (4) for the function α(i), (7) if there is only one deep resonant term, and if it strongly dominates the remaining periodic terms of the Hamiltonian, the problem is reducible to the Ideal form.
