Stability in Hamiltonian Systems : KAM stability versus instability around an invariant torus

In his ICM-54 lecture, Kolmogorov introduced a now fundamental result regarding the persistence of a large (in the measure theoretic sense) set of invariant tori, in a certain category of almost-integrable Hamiltonian systems. 44 years later, in his ICM-98 talk, Herman conjectured that given any ana...
