TITLE Controlling chaos in area-preserving maps AUTHOR Cristel CHANDRE & Michel VITTOT & Yves ELSKENS & Guido CIRAOLO & Marco PETTINI ABSTRACT We describe a method of control of chaos that occurs in area-preserving maps. This method is based on small modifications of the original map by addition of a small control term. We apply this control technique to the standard map and to the tokamap.
