A Note on the Existence of a Smale Horseshoe in the Planar Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem

It has been proved that, in the classical planar circular restricted three-body problem, the degenerate saddle point processes transverse homoclinic orbits. Since the standard Smale-Birkhoff theorem cannot be directly applied to indicate the chaotic dynamics of the Smale horseshoe type, we in this n...
