On invariant manifolds and invariant foliations without a spectral gap.

It is known that a spectral gap condition is required for the existence and smoothness of invariant manifolds and invariant foliations near a fixed point. However, any planar mapping with a unipotent linear part, having a center manifold on the whole phase plane, does not have such a gap. In this paper, we give the existence and smoothness of invariant manifolds, which are invariant submanifolds of the center manifold, for the aforementioned planar mapping. Corresponding to the invariant submanifolds, we further prove the existence and smoothness of invariant foliations on the center manifold. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
