This document discusses Birkhoff coordinates for the Toda lattice as the number of particles approaches infinity, with applications to the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) problem. It focuses on the analytic properties of the Birkhoff map and the stability of metastable states in these systems while presenting theorems regarding the behavior of the Hamiltonian and mapping under various conditions. Key findings include the existence of global real analytic symplectic diffeomorphisms and implications for long-term dynamics in many-particle systems.
