E. Meletlidou, The Mel'nikov subharmonic function and the non-existence of analytic integrals in non-autonomous systems, CEL MEC DYN, 78(1-4), 2000, pp. 161-166
We consider a one-dimensional non-degenerate Hamiltonian system perturbed b
y a periodically time dependent non-Hamiltonian vector field and show that
the non-vanishing of the Mel'nikov subharmonic function is strongly related
to the non-existence of an analytic integral in the perturbed system.
