Abstract

In this paper, for a symmetric nonlinear oscillator, we show that to the leading order, the adiabatic invariant is equivalent to the quantity y'(0), where y is a family of adiabatically symmetric solutions. The leading order of the latter quantity can be obtained by exponential asymptotic analysis. This method for finding the adiabatic invariant can be used to other oscillators.
