Abstract

In this paper we prove, among other results, that near the equilibirum position, any periodic FPU chain with an odd number N of particles admits a Birkhoff normal form up to order 4, whereas any periodic FPU chain with N even admits a resonant normal form up to order 4. This resonant normal form of order 4 turns out to be completely integrable. Further, for N odd, we obtain an explicit formula of the Hessian of its Hamiltonian at the fixed point.
