Abstract
The resonant structure near a noble cantorus is found. Islands of stability are located near the gaps of the cantorus. The crossing of the gaps of the cantorus by the asymptotic curves of unstable periodic orbits is shown num erically (non-schematically). We discuss how these structures influence sti ckiness.
