Nonresonant limit for sequences of resonant orbits: the case of holomorphic maps

The approximation of a nonresonant orbit with a sequence of resonant orbits is considered for the holomorphic maps of the complex plane. The problem is motivated by Hamiltonian dynamics (Greene's conjecture) and we consider a complexified Hamiltonian map in the region (far from the section of real dynamics) where it can be reduced to a holomorphic map of a single complex variable. For a sequence of maps in normal form with linear resonant frequencies, the limit to a linear map with nonresonant diophantine frequency has a simple interpretation: the flower-like resonant orbits become circles due to the increase of the number of petals and the freezing of radial motion. A similar non-trivial result is proved for small perturbations of the normal forms by investigating the behaviour of the conjugation functions.
