On Standard perturbations of the Affine twist map
For any $t\in\mathbb{R}$, consider the Affine twist map $\rm{Aff_t}:\mathbb{T}^2\to\mathbb{T}^2$ given by $$\rm{Aff_t}(x,y)=(x+y \text{ mod 1}, y+t \text{ mod 1}).$$ The map $\rm{Aff_t}$ clearly possesses an invariant foliation by horizontal curves. If $t$ is rational, each leaf is periodic, and if $t$ is irrational, t...
