dc.descriptionWe consider a mechanism for area preserving Hamiltonian systems which leads to the enhanced probability, $P(λ, t)$, to find small values of the finite time Lyapunov exponent, $λ$. In our investigation of chaotic dynamical systems we go beyond the linearized stability analysis of nearby divergent trajectories and consider folding of the phase space in the course of chaotic evolution. We show that the spectrum of the Lyapunov exponents $F(λ)= \lim_{t\to\infty} t^{-1}\ln P(λ, t)$ at the origin has a finite value $F(0)=-\tildeλ$ and a slope $F'(0)\le 1$. This means that all negative moments of the distribution $<e^{-mλt}>$ are saturated by rare events with $λ\to 0$. Extensive numerical simulations confirm our findings.
