| This paper considers the generalized Henon-Heiles system, defined by the Hamiltonian Η = (p21 + p22 + Αq21 + Bq22)/2 + Cq21q2 + Dq32. Melnikov's method is used to prove the existence of nondegenerate homoclinic orbits near two integrable cases: (o) C = 0; A, B, D arbitrary; (i) A = B; C = 3D. The existence of such orbits precludes the existence of analytic second integrals. |
